The Holiness of Israel

Teach chanachim that Am Yisrael Worked incredibly hard to get Eretz Yisrael, just like the chanachim worked really hard to get the treat.  (You can go into details if there is time:  they did physical work, political negotiating…just like the tasks you did).  And they waited 2000 years to return to Israel, just like they waited for this, Do you really think that Am Yisrael can just give up Eretz Yisrael now, without a fight?!?

Explain that before the State of Israel, Jews had to be smuggled into

Israel, emphasize the desire of the Jews for a homeland, and the effort it took to achieve.

That the Chanichim should understand the meaning of our country and the importance of the hope. Another goal is for them to understand the meaning of the national anthem of our land.

Discuss

Israel’s water crisis: the beauty behind Am Yisrael’s dependency on Hashem for rain and how we must do our part too.

Teach the chanachim the story of Yaakovs dream and how Hashem promised us the land of Israel as our homeland.

To teach the chanachim about Parshat Vayetze and Yaakov's dream and also about the land of Israel through an interactive quiz.

To learn about the Bar Kochba Revolt which was a last attempt to liberate

Jerusalem from the Romans after the destruction of the Bayt HaMikdash. To discuss if the mass suicide at Massada was justified. Please note, Massada is not in

Jerusalem, but rather the

Negev. It is slightly off topic, but still a very important part of our story.

מטרה: להכיר את המושג "מצוות התלויות בארץ"" ומשמעותו, וללמוד אודות מצוות אחדות.

Hey Kids, Please don’t step on the crops!! Don’t step on the wheat. Ahh, are you the new workers that came to help me?

To get the chanichim to be "jealous" of people who live in

Israel.
