The Jewish Holiday Craft book is a great tool for both parents and teachers. Filled with lots of craft ideas for all major Jewish holidays, this book is also nicely illustrated with step by step instructions and a detailed list of what you will need for each project. Each holiday section begins with a brief description of the holiday and related traditions.

Although the book is geared towards younger children, a variety of crafts are presented - some for pre-schoolers, but some definately for older elementary school-age students. Additionally, some of the crafts may give you your own ideas to make them more age appropriate. The napkin covered vase project for Shabbat is appropriate for younger grades. It inspired me to create a decoupage vase craft for older children.

I would recommend this book for Jewish religious school teachers for elementary grades and families with young (up to middle school) children. A nice addition to your personal or school library!

this is a very easy book to use. the directions are straight forward and the ilustrations are easy to follow. i like how they give explanations for all of the crafts as to how they are supposed to be used in their particular holiday.
