Tu Bshvat in KDH

Tu Bshvat, the New Year of the Trees is alway a welcome respite from the cold winter. It reminds us that better weather and better things will follow. We also think about all the goodness that trees provide and the seven special species of Israel. What are some of the things KDH did for
Tu Bshvat?

KDH brought in Show and Tell items relating to trees. 




The children were surprised to hear that paper is made from trees. We talked about the process and then recycled some paper and made a new piece of paper from it.



Still life drawings of fruit done with water color pencils are beautiful. No surprise to us.  We love the children's art.

Today, Tu Bshvat we created trees from the pretzels, fruits and nuts and snacked on them.






Yum!  Trees are so important!
