Seeds of Kindness

Today we continued our exploration of a pomegranate. On Friday we had a beautiful and colorful snack that included red peppers and pomegrante.  We smelled, touched and tasted the sweet pomegrante seeds.  Today we tasted the seeds again and discussed how we eat a pomegranate on Rosh Hashanah in hopes that our good deeds in the ensuing year will be as plentiful as the seeds of the pomegranate.    The Etzim children then thought about ways they could be kind to others in the year ahead.   Our responses included
Josh - build blocks with a friend, Sophie G and Mia - color a picture, Jacob and Ben - give a hug, Julia - give a sticker, Jack - eat your meatballs and share them, Lilah - hold hands, Audrey - share Bob and Wendy, Olivia - say hello, Reed - sharing, Eliana - say hello.  What a thoughtful group of children!
