Celebrating trees - Tu B'shevat

Tu B'shevat is the celebration of the trees. What wonderful things do the trees give us; fruits, nuts, shade, paper, wood and oxygen. The children have been enjoying celebrating this holiday and are looking forward to our Tu B'shevat seder tomorrow where we will taste the fruits from the trees and honor them with songs and blessings. You are welcomed to join your child at this special meal.
Look at all the wonderful projects the children have been making for Tu B'shevat:

In writing this blog and thinking about Tu B'Shevat I am happy that more and more things are becoming electronic, it was a wonderful way to view things as well as a way to save resources.
What can you do in your family to help the environment?
