KIDS & FAMILIES

Purim celebrates the courage to speak up, like Esther did when she foiled the plot of Haman. On Sunday, March 4 from 10-11:30am, discover the magic of Purim with astonishing illusions by Matt Roberts of the PBS series Ribert and Robert’s WonderWorld. After the show, make Purim mishloach manot (holiday baskets) and eat hamantaschen (cookies). Come in costume. Held at Kehillah Schechter Academy (formerly South Area Solomon Schechter Day School) located at One Commerce Way in Norwood. Geared for families with children ages 2-6 years. Cost is $15 per family. Open to the entire community. Register at bostonjcc.org/south. For more information, contact south@jccgb.org or 781-795-0510. Programs north of Boston are presented in collaboration with Jewish Family & Children’s Service of Greater Boston with support from Combined Jewish Philanthropies.
