Sukkot Shuk

In an imaginary shuk (market place), children become expert shopper where they:

  • Feel the distinct texture of Estrogim from around the world and smell their sweet fragrance;

  • Smell and touch the other three species: the Lulav (palm branch); the Hadas (myrtle); and Arava (willow);
  • Learn to arrange and hold a “Four Species” set in the proper manner, as well as the Torah source for each Mitzvah;
  • Create a lulav-holder from strips of palm branches. The group receives one finished set.

This program is greatly enhanced when presented in a school or community Sukkah.
