Mini Mensches

A community of families with children ages 0-5 creating lasting friendships, Jewish connection, and memories together.

Mini Mensches Tot Shabbats

On the first and third Saturday of each month we have Tot Shabbat. Start your Shabbat off with some fun! Tot Shabbat is open to all members of the community, and aimed at kids 0-5 years old. We’ll sing, dance, and tell some stories all about Shabbat (and maybe even some Purim during March). This is a great way to introduce kiddos to Judaism and meet other Jewish families with young kids. All are welcome!

In the summer we do our Tot Shabbats outdoors and at parks around the city! Locations are listed below for the next several months. 

Upcoming Dates on Saturdays, at 9:00 AM in Pollin Chapel at Congregation Beth Israel (unless other location noted):

• NO TOT SHABBAT JULY 6
• July 20 at Gabriel Park
• August 3 at Westmoreland Park
• August 17 at Washington Park Playground
• September 7 at Peninsula Park
• September 21 at CBI Plaza
