As Jewish families and communities, we carry a responsibility to pursue justice, guided by the principle of tzedek, tzedek tirdof—"Justice, justice you shall pursue." Through song and education, we can empower the next generation to stand for what is right, celebrate diversity, and work together to repair the world.

Music has the unique power to unify, inspire, and teach. Whether it’s singing songs about justice with children, fostering conversations about equality, or creating joyful moments that strengthen community bonds, we can use music as a tool for transformation.

Tonight, I rediscovered a part of myself I’ve missed—the artist in the studio. It’s been a long, long time, but reconnecting with my creative flow was pure joy (plus- my songs are WAY better. I’m beyond grateful to be in a place where artistry and strategy align, where I can create something meaningful and sustainable.

I’m amped from the joy of creative expression and so excited to share that two new Tu Bishvat songs are on the way, launching next month! Exclusive content—including songs, engagement strategies, and tools for educators—will be available through my Tu Bishvat course (these are 2 of the 15 featured songs!) Pre-order now (link in bio)!

Building something sustainable and impactful takes effort and evolution, and while the wisdom was hard-earned, I’m grateful for every step of the journey.

🥁Let’s make some noise for Tu BiShvat! ✨ Combine novelty, movement, sensory fun, and a tiny bit of control, it’s a winning formula at any age. Seriously, who wouldn’t enjoy shaking colorful rice around in the name of celebrating trees? 🌳🎶

Here’s how to make them:
1️⃣ Grab some plastic, fillable ornaments (safety first—choose sturdy ones!).
2️⃣ Mix uncooked rice with food coloring let it dry completely.
3️⃣ Fill each ornament with the colorful rice—leave room for shaking magic!
4️⃣ Screw the tops on tightly (a dab of glue won’t hurt if you’re worried about enthusiastic shakers).
5️⃣ Hand them out and watch the joy as rhythm and trees collide!

🌟 Want more ideas to elevate your Tu BiShvat celebrations? Pre-order my Tu BiShvat course today and get songs, strategies, and activities that connect children and families to the beauty of nature through music.
Kiddos will add rhythm to tree songs while we play with these to celebrate the birthday of the trees!
