How to love children

Encouragement for parents The way we talk to our kids becomes their inner voice. One of the best ways to boost children’s self-worth is to listen like they matter. Because they do. When your children decide to talk to you and share their problems, stop everything and listen to them. There is nothing more important than that. If your child asks for a cuddle during your household chores, don’t say “later”. Your chores can wait. A cuddle only takes a few short minutes, but a child’s memory will keep forever. Children need hugs more than they need things. When you are hugging a child, always be...

Tu b’Shevat 2017

Celebrating Tu b’Shevat This year on February 10-11 we join with the Jewish community in celebrating a minor Jewish holiday, Tu b’Shevat, often referred to as the new year (or “birthday”) of the trees. The holiday originated in the Talmud, and was based on the date chosen for calculating the agricultural cycle of taking tithes from the produce of the trees, which were brought as first-fruit offerings to the Temple in Jerusalem. Tu b’Shevat gets its name from the date in the Jewish calendar on which the holiday occurs, the 15th of the month of Shevat.
