Families with Young Children (under 8)

Here at Temple Sholom we are particularly proud of our programs designed specifically for families with young children.

As we continue to develop more events like our popular family-friendly Jammie Jam Havdalah and our hugely successful Tot Shabbats, we are always looking to the community for any further thoughts or ideas on how to best engage young children and their parents. New members are always welcome and we look forward to seeing more shining young faces at the events!

For more information and to get involved, contact Lisa Kaplan at 773-435-1545, or via email at lkaplan@sholomchicago.org.

Families with Pre B’Nai and Teen Children (age 8-18)

At Temple Sholom our Pre-Teen and Teen events combine fun and a social scene with responsible community action. At the same time, we offer events to help parents find new ways to interact with each other and their growing children.

The Temple wants to promote more innovative and exciting programs to complement the already successful Mitzvah Bakers, Night Ministry, and Havdalah Chavurahs. Of course, we welcome new members along with any ideas or thoughts about how we can better serve this growing community.

For more information and to get involved, contact Lisa Kaplan at 773-435-1545, or via email at lkaplan@sholomchicago.org.
