Here we see King Achashverosh at his feast. Morgan and Mason played the guards!
The king must select a new queen!
Mordechai overhears the guards talking!
A conversation between King Achashverosh and Queen Esther!
One of the best parts about Purim is having a gragger to shake when "Haman" is mentioned. The Green Room fiends LOVED making them! Here is a visual of the tray each friend got to use.
A couple of the kids noticed that there were glass cups provided. When they asked if it was real glass I said "Yes, because I trust you and I know you'll be careful." I learned about allowing kids to use "real" things, such as glass cups, this at a recent workshop. Kids live up to the expectations we have of them. When I told them that I knew that they'd be careful and that I trusted them, in turn they were careful and trusted themselves.
We look forward to continuing the build up to one of our favorite holidays over the next 2 weeks!
Morah Gitty and I hope you enjoy your long weekend. We'll see you back at CJP on Tuesday. Shabbat Shalom!
