ISRAEL AT 60 - Israel is our Jewish Home: Integrating Israel at Home with Young Children
by Maxine Handelman

Jewish children need to be drawn into a relationship with Israel. Using books, stories, pictures, food and other strategies, parents can do so much to help flesh out each child's imagination of Israel, so that each child begins to form a connection to and love for this home so far away. Included is a short list of books appropriate for children 1 - 6.

RAISING READY READERS
Kay Pomerantz offers tips to help establish early good reading habits.

NOW AND FOREVER
A beautiful invitation from Rabbi Brad Artson to open ourselves to life-long commitments to those we love: our spouses, our parents, our siblings, our children and our friends.

OUR MOTHERS, OURSELVES
Sue DePasquale queries if our mothers had it right when they said parents should relax and know their children are resilient!

NAMING OUR CHILDREN
Jane Epstein makes a lasting contribution to all parents as they ponder selecting a name for a newborn.

JERUSALEM OF GOLD
A book on Jerusalem parents might enjoy anytime and particularly during Israel's sixtieth year.

THE PRICE OF CHILDREN
A humorous view on the cost of parenting!

SUMMER READING
Amy Kaplan, Librarian, helps us prepare to read all summer long.
