Around Town Story Hour Delights Tots hy Dorothea Snyder

"Story hours are common in public libraries, but they haven't been done at temples in this area," says librarian Chana Berman. A gleeful cluster of very young children had just bounced into the library at Temple Torat Yisrael for a story hour. Chana talks of the program as A.:,::::::::::::~~ experimental for now, hoping that if h'.::::::-,-~ parents become acquainted with it, she 'l( will plan another in the Spring. The program ran for five weeks on Thursday mornings in November. "There is so much Jewish content we can subtly instill in young children," she says. "They are able to pick up everything. "It's fun, it's very informal, and the kids have a good time playing, singing and dancing. I read a story to them, and then we have a project connected to the story." Throughout the month, Chana taught the children about Succot, Shabbat . . and the Jewish home by Chana Berman, librarian at Temple Torat Yisrael, captures the attention of making mezuzzahs. these three and four-year olds during a special children's library program.

Chana had chosen donuts to accompany apple juice, explaining to the tots that donuts are a traditional food for Eastern Jewry at Chanukah. One mother, who had popped in to get a book at the library, praised Chana's program. " It's marvelous!" she exclaimed, surprised that I would even ask. "My daughter loves it!"
