Rebuilding The Beit HaMikdash Recycling Craft For Kids
I have pulled this post from the archives, as it is one of my favorites for The Three Weeks. Today is the 17th of Tammuz, a solemn fast day on the Jewish calender, and certainly a perfect time to work on my “Rebuilding the Beit HaMikdash” recycling craft with kids of all ages!

Fortuntately, I picked up some wooden clothes pins to hang my felt Hanukkah wall hanging, and so this year seemed like the time to give cute this idea a try. Funny enough, some of those who have made this craft before me didn’t even take advantage of the cutest detail of all, that little ones can “light” the…
