Shabbat No’ar: Our Shabbat Program for 1st-7th Graders
- Saturdays 10:00am-12:00 PM
- Through a blend of social activity and educational electives, children will be exposed to the Torah portion of the week (via skits or discussions), Shabbat prayers, and Jewish virtues while building a youth community and fostering friendships.
Shabbat Bonim: Our Shabbat Program for PreK-Kindergarteners
- Saturdays 10:00am-12:00 PM
- Bonim is a joyous introduction to BZBI’s Youth & Family Education Program, and features:
*Play-based learning
*Shabbat-friendly crafts

The morning is filled with activities and fun that will focus on learning about Jewish holidays, mitzvot, and Jewish values. The children also participate in a sweet, developmentally appropriate Shabbat service with challah and grape juice.
Tot Shabbat:
- Saturdays 11:15 AM in the Klinghoffer Chapel
BZBI’s Shabbat celebration for young children – in the Klinghoffer Chapel on Saturday mornings at 11:15 AM! The Tot Shabbat service engages the youngest members of our community in interactive Shabbat songs and stories. It is geared towards children 0-4 and their families, with older siblings always welcome! The atmosphere is casual – you and your little ones can relax, sing, and move around.
This service is led by the amazing Sarah Fleischman, Assistant Director of Early Childhood Education, lifelong BZBI member and Tot Shabbat enthusiast! Join our WhatsApp Group for Updates.
Shabbat Prayground:

At the back of our sanctuary, you can allow your toddler to play with toys and puzzles in a dedicated space while you pray adjacent to them.
