JEWISH ROOTS PROJECT for TK - Kinders When: Wednesdays | 3:15 p.m. - 4:45 p.m.
Duration: September 2024 - June 2025
Start Date: September 11, 2024
The Jewish Roots Project is a NEW program at Mishkon; a collaboration with ARTWELL. Every week, kiddos will alternate between process art or hands-on cooking. They’ll be fully immersed in modern Jewish culture, singing music, tasting traditional cuisine, creating meaningful art, and strengthening their connections to their roots. This is a drop-off program for TK-K kids.

Your home. A backlot studio. The Baal Shem Tov Forest in the Galilee. A golf course. The Western Wall in Jerusalem. The beach. A community synagogue in Los Angeles. Open Temple creates sacred spaces in the world surrounding us. Read what was featured in the Jewish Journal about Open Temple’s customizable B Mitzvahs.

Congregation Ner Tamid Preschool was established to meet the needs of families of all denominations desiring a warm and nurturing preschool experience for their children. For children 2-5, our Preschool program promotes cognitive, social, emotional, physical and creative development. Our children are also given the opportunity to observe and experience Jewish rituals, celebrations, and customs so that they can develop their own Jewish identities. We have Friday Shabbat parties, hands-on activities and projects, family programs and more.

Each summer our preschool is open for our Camp Growing Garden. The camp is for children from 3 months through 4 years of age. For children 5 years and older we have a separate Camp Gan Israel at the same campus.

Each week of camp we have a unique theme where all the activities and learning follow the weekly theme. Here are some of the activities your child will enjoy at Camp Growing Garden
