As always, I hope this is helpful to somebody!

  1. You really ought to be selling these. You're obviously doing a lot of work to produce them...

  2. a) it's not THAT much work to throw a bunch of dreidels on a page...
    b) I can't find many good printables, so if I don't make something, my kids get nothing.
    c) if I charge money, I probably couldn't steal clip art as shamelessly as I currently do.
    d) where's your spirit of holiday giving? Grinch! ;-)

  5. Hi Jennifer,
    These look amazing. I can't get the google docs Bereshis sequencing- and also I was looking ahead at Google doc for Hanukkah and also it was asking for permission. Could you please give me Google doc permission (did you get an email about that?) or email the documents to me?
    You are clearly very talented!

Our little neighbourhood in Israel has a significant Chabad presence, and Chabad conducts fairly significant outreach within the community.  Which sounds nice until you realize that this is a religious neighbourhood, closed on Shabbos, where some huge percentage of people are shomer mitzvos.  Sure, it’s mostly religious Zionist, and there are a range of observances, for sure, but we’re pretty much all religious here in some way or another. So at that point, this isn’t outreach but inreach .  Convincing people who are religious to be… what? A lot of Chabad’s efforts here are focused on kids, including a
