The Kids Shul โ Rosh Hashanah Edition ๐๐ฏ
A Family-Friendly Rosh Hashanah Experience for All Ages
Rosh Hashanah is one of the most meaningful days of the Jewish yearโand we believe children should experience that meaning too.
At The Kids Shul โ Rosh Hashanah Edition, children won't just be entertainedโthey'll become an important part of the service. Designed especially for families with young children, this warm and engaging experience allows kids to actively participate while parents enjoy watching them grow in their connection to Judaism.
From leading songs and prayers to helping open the Ark, reading from the Torah, and participating throughout the morning, every child has the opportunity to feel included and inspired.
And because no sweet New Year celebration is complete without delicious treats, we'll also be enjoying our signature...
๐๐ฏ Caramel Apple & Honey Bar
A festive brunch featuring everything kids (and parents!) love:
- Fresh apple slices with caramel & honey dips
- Mini caramel apples
- Yogurt parfaits
- Mini challah rolls
- Fresh fruit platters
- Bagels & cream cheese
- Honey-themed treats
- Coffee for the grown-ups and kid-friendly refreshments
It's the perfect way to celebrate a sweet new year together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! One of the highlights of The Kids Shul is that many parts of the program are led by children.

Every child will have an opportunity to participate.
