Learning to shake the lulav

Learning to shake the lulav can be harder than it looks. It's long body makes it heavy. Stand facing east with your lulav. Then you have to remember all six directions, shaking it 3 times in each one:
In front
To the right
Behind
To the left
Up above towards the sky
Down towards the ground

Shaking the lulav is a mitzvah, a commandment, of Sukkot that all of the children at TBSCC got to complete. If you want to have a go, stop by and borrow or lulav. Your child will show you what to do.
