Make New Friends

We learned a new song in the Haifa class this morning as part of our exploration of friendship.  Yom Kippur is a time to think about our mistakes in the past year and how we can treat others and do friendly acts in the year to come.  In Judaism there are two featured relationships, person to person and person to God. Jewish tradition teaches that to correct our mistakes we must apologize directly to the other person.  An important skill in the early childhood years as well, we are focusing on what it means to make a friend, be a friend, and keep a friend.


Make new friends, but keep the old.
One is silver, the other is gold.

A circle is round, it has no end.
That's how long, I will be your friend.
