🎭🎶 Purim fun in full swing! 🎶🎭

In this clip, we’re diving into the playful energy of "Purim, Purim" by Lisa Baydush! I introduced the characters while the kids clapped along, repeating their names and learning the story in a fun, engaging way—right along with the slides on the screen! 👑✨
“Say hi to Esther!” 👋👸
“Shalom, Mordechai!” 🙌🙂
“Boooo for Haman!” 👎😠
The little ones loved clapping and calling out the names, helping them remember the key Purim characters while developing listening skills and rhythm. It’s all about making the story come alive—one clap and cheer at a time! 🥳🎉

It’s pure Purim joy with learning rolled into one playful song session! 🎉🥳

✨ “Music is a gateway to spirituality, inviting children into a shared experience of wonder, connection, and joy.” – Dr. Lisa Miller ✨

I couldn’t agree more! Music has the power to open hearts, spark curiosity, and deepen our sense of belonging—especially for young children. Whether it’s through singing a favorite Shabbat song, clapping along to a lively niggun, or swaying in harmony with a community, music creates sacred moments of connection. Dr. Lisa Miller's amazing resource "The Spiritual Child" deeply infroms my work, check her out ASAP for a inspiring read.

Our hearts have been aching. The weight of the world has made me quieter, maybe even less joyful. 9 asked for a Shabbes dance party tonight, I think she sensed I needed it.
Music and movement don’t just bring joy—they help us process, they help us heal, and they remind us that there is goodness right in front of us.

We can grieve and celebrate.
We can ache and dance.
We can carry sorrow and still make space for joy.

So we danced. Under the glow of our (re purposed Chanukah) party lights, just three little girls and one mama choosing joy, choosing connection, choosing to embrace what is good and holy in this moment.

Shabbat Shalom. What a privilege it is to raise these precious souls. 💛
