Kindershul

Altshul is committed to providing meaningful and engaging morning services for the children in our community. Kindershul is a fun, child-centered service that meets on Shabbat morning and holidays. Altshul features two kindershul services: one for young children, and one for elementary school age children. The kindershul services start at the beginning of the Torah service (typically around 11:00).

The younger-kids service is intended for children younger than 6. It is a musical, engaging service consisting of Shabbat songs, tefillot, and a “drash”: a story or activity (sometimes loosely) based on the parasha of the week or holiday. The service – shomer shabbos friendly, with no instruments – is led by educators from Tkiya. Children are accompanied by parents at this service.
