This program, which will run simultaneously to the CBE Hanukkah Sing-a-Long in the Sanctuary, is designed for families and children to drop-in at any point between 3:00PM and 5:00PM - stay for as long or as short as you'd like. Please see below for a brief description of the stations kids will be able to choose from.

Shadow Puppet Station- kids can make their own shadow puppets or learn how to make Hanukkah shadow puppets with their hands
