Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are times when parents, grandparents, and significant others need time to reflect without worrying about children. So we will offer “Simcha Shalom: High Holiday Adventures" for all children from preschool (3 years old and up) through seventh grade. Preschool aged children (3-5) will be well taken care of by the professional staff of the Niskayuna Co Op in room 9. And children from kindergarten through 7th grade will have their own program on Yom Kippur. Age-appropriate activities include a Breakout for upper elementary & middle school students; third & fourth grade students will create a play, The Wrong Way to Nineveh. Their schedule includes a short service, where we will emphasize being a better friend, brothers/sisters, sons/daughters, grandsons/granddaughters, but they will probably remember the story books, playing with a large parachute, making Oreo moons and snacking on apples and honey. All this takes place on Yom Kippur morning, Saturday, October 12 from 9:45 am -1:00 pm.
