Mark Magid Bullet Points – This week Sefer Yonah (3:5-6)
- How could it be that the people of Ninveh, on the brink of destruction, actually believed in Hashem?
- Why were the people of Ninveh so readily acceptable to Yonah’s warning – listened to him right away, and started doing teshuvah?
- Why was it that the king of Ninveh acted so quickly and with such haste to start doing teshuvah himself?

Childcare for the High Holy-Days
Childcare this year for the High Holidays will take place at the shul from 9:15- 1:45. Although we’re under construction we are planning a very safe and clean childcare program for our children between the hours of 9:15 and 1:45. The groups will be as they have been in the past for children ages 2.5-10 years old.
Groups
1. Toddlers: 2.5-5 years old
2. Girls: 6-10 years old
3. Boys: 6-10 years old
Our very special counselors will start the programming with davening, learning and kiddush. As the counselors have requested that they too, need time to daven in shul, we have arranged for the program to be supervised by a trained and friendly staff of caregivers who have a lot of experience with children. These caregivers will be on site for the entire duration of the childcare program for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. We continue our tradition of providing healthy snacks as in previous years. However if your child has special things they like to eat, or special requirements, we would recommend that you provide for them. Please also notify Childcare if your child has allergies to certain foods, we can work with you to avoid a reaction.
Goal and Mission: It is our philosophy that a child should be happy in childcare. Therefore we have created a respectful, happy and positive environment for your children. If a child is unhappy we try to help them adapt, we try to accommodate, to console but if a child is expressing that he truly needs his Mom or Dad then we will come and get you. We thank you for your understanding and we are always here to speak with you about any matters that you wish to discuss. Ultimately, the way a child feels about shul will last a lifetime. We hope that we can made that feeling to be one of joy and happiness.
Playing Outside: Due to construction there will not be activities in the yard though there may be an opportunity to play in the Escovitz’s yard. The children would go over there in walking groups let by their caregivers. If you do not wish for your child to cross the street with the group and go and play outdoors there you must let Childcare or a counselor know and we will leave them in your care before we go.
Safety; Childcare is a safe place for children to play and spend time with friends. Listening to the counselors is not just a way of showing Kavod but is necessary to keep your child safe. We would love your help in helping us explain ahead of time to your child that they are expected to comply with the rules of the shul and must follow the caregiver, counselor or Director’s rules and instructions. Please remind them that chasing a friend, roughhousing, teasing or name calling, wrestling, ball playing(even mini super balls), throwing paper airplanes , frisbees or pieces of chess, Othello etc. is not acceptable behavior in a shul. If a child is repeatedly unable to follow these guidelines then the responsibility of their supervision will be returned to their parents.
CHILDREN MUST ALWAYS BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT: All children must be accompanied by a parent at shul. Children cannot be left in childcare while a parent goes home, to another shul for a shiur etc. This is for the safety and well being of the children.
Health Concerns: Any child who is not feeling well or who might have lice should not be brought to shul. If a child appears to be ill , coughing, cold etc we will ask the parent to come and care for them outside of childcare to protect the other children from infection.
How long should my daughter or son stay in shul? This depends on your child. We believe that 4.5 hours is a very long time for a child to stay in shul. It is a long time to expect them to behave properly. For some children it is appropriate but not for others. Though wonderful supervision will be available we do ask that you consider what length of time is appropriate for your child.
Diapers: All diaper changes are done by the parents.
Bathroom Visits: Due to the construction the bathrooms are now located outside. Because the bathrooms are outside we wish to ask parents to periodically check if their children need to use the facilities. For their safety we do not want children to go alone to the yard. We will do several excursions, however it would be important for all parents especially of YOUNG CHILREN to come and assist with these visits, if they are needed more often so that we can keep the supervion of the chidlren at its peak.
Thank you so much for your cooperation. We thank you for bringing your chidlren to us and we look forward to entertaining and enriching your children’s yamim tovim and to starting a wonderful new year with you all.
We wish you a Shanna Tova U MetukA!
Childcare Director and the Childcare committee.
