Shabbat Program
Our children are our lifeline. Our continuity as a community is dependent on it. As such, it is imperative that we invest heavily in our children’s synagogue/communal experience.
Petah Tikva is pleased to offer two great weekly Shabbat programs:
Gan Tikva, for ages 2-5, is a fun program which includes games, toys, stories and many fun activities with plenty of yummy snacks. Our youngest members have plenty space and time to enjoy Shabbat mornings with their friends in a fun, loving and safe environment.
Bene Tikva, for ages 6-10, is an exciting, informative and interactive program which sees children of this age engage in plenty of games, trivia and educational fun. The Kids Kiddush is a highlight of this fun-filled morning as are the many prizes given for simply attending and having fun.
We ask that all parents encourage their children to attend the Shabbat Program. Both you and your child(ren) will find the experience very rewarding.
