Shehechiyanu – Children and Families event

PJ Library invites you to Norwich Synagogue to celebrate the new school and play year – Shehechiyanu – with arts, crafts, stories, song and games and lunch.

There is a free book for children under 8.  Older children can come along as helpers.

PJ Library is a program of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, a North American Jewish non-profit organization based in West Springfield, Massachusetts. It was created in December 2005 as a Jewish engagement and literacy program for Jewish and interfaith families with young children.

The award-winning books celebrate Jewish culture, values and traditions through a wide range of stories and beautiful illustrations. PJ Library books are posted directly to children so they can build their own Jewish bedtime libraries.

Every month a new book is sent out to thousands of children in the UK, some of them timeless Jewish classics and some modern interpretations. Many are new and original stories.
