Library Essentials

We can all agree that there is almost nothing as important as educating our children! We can also agree that children's books are a big part of that endeavor. With the help and support of our incredible parent body, we've recently renovated our children's library! The space is beautiful and inviting. We have also begun using a computer program that categorizes and labels the books with barcodes, as well as creates library cards with barcodes for the children and staff. Now, as I search for Jewish books in our computer program, our collection seems thin. We'd love some suggestions of Jewish children's book "essentials" to add to our collection. Have you used a particular vendor for purchasing these "essentials?" Thanks in advance!

New CD- A Little Taste of Torah

Little Taste of Torah is Peter & Ellen at an entirely new level. The fourteen new, original songs reflect the Allard's growing maturity and sophistication as Jewish educators and musicians, while remaining true to their roots as writers of Jewish children's music that is easy to sing, high energy, and FUN. The sparkling, state-of-the-art digital production makes these songs come alive with a vibrant energy that, if you have seen Peter and Ellen perform live, you will recognize as uniquely theirs. Several of these tunes - "Shofar Blast," "Shake, Shake, Shake," and "Baby Moses in a Basket" to name just a few - became instant classics after being introduced at Hava Nashira, and are now widely taught and sung in Jewish schools across North America.
