A Learning Suggestion – received: One of my brothers just emailed my siblings and myself and suggested all grandchildren sent up a chavrusah with my father over the phone. I am passing this idea on to you and expanding it. It does not have to be a chavrusah in Gemorah or Mishnayos – it can be parsha or even reading a book and discussing it together. This can be for grandparents or anyone else that you know might be alone. With so many people home without any company this might be a chesed your child can do and increase his/her learning (assuming there is an open phone line.) (Maybe the person on the phone would even be willing to listen to him/her read do something he/she needs to do for school!) – Mrs. Weiner
