The theme for our second session of camp was Shalom Bayit, Peace in the home. We started with a pre-Father's Day Donuts for Dad before Shabbat Singing. Everyone loved it! We actually served donut holes because they are the right size for preschoolers.
Some of the art projects were a family mobile, it was a house with the kids actual address ( so they were learning their addresses) and then stick people for each of their family members and of course pets. This was a very cute project and the kids loved it!
When the children built their Village Shalom pictured above they talked about the importance of having peaceful homes and classrooms. They finger painted the grass and dirt and designed the houses with chalk, water colors, stickers and glue and foam shapes creating a village of shalom where they could pretend to go to each other's houses in their neighborhood. I am told by parents that the kids play for months with the projects they bring home from this classroom!
