Blessings

It’s a #blessed episode of Hebrew School as our kid contestant, Charlie, plays three games that are all about brachot, or blessings: “Mah Zeh?” (What Is This?), “Emet, Emet, Bedichah” (Two Truths and a Joke), and “Eavesdropping on History”.  Our episode also includes the story “The Blessings” by master storyteller Peninnah Schram, music from Lenny Solomon and our house band Shlock Rock, and wisdom from first graders from Central Synagogue in Manhattan, who took part in our “Chochmat HaHamonim”, or Wisdom of the Crowd segment.  Want to be a contestant on Hebrew School?
