Things can get a little over the top during the holidays and celebrating #Hanukkah can mean a lot of ANDs (AND one night of presents AND another night of presents!) so this year I wanted to share some easy swaps you can try at home for a more sustainable holiday. Tikkun Olam 🌍 is the #Jewish value me and my family are really thinking a lot about this year and it’s made me feel good to just make some little changes to have less waste and less plastic in my home. Check out today’s video if you’re curious to see how - I also included a lot of party hosting tips as I know that can also be a time when spending and wasting can get a little out of control. Of course we are by no means perfect, but it’s all about everyone doing their little part. 🌟Link in Bio to watch 🌟 . . . #tikkunolam #jewishblogger #judaism #jewish #2020judaism #hanukkahdecor #hanukkahgifts #hanukkahparty #sustainableliving #sustainableholidays #sustainablehome #wastefree #holidayhacks #youtubemom

Growing up there was no such thing as “Hanukkah decor” that could be purchased in stores, so we really had to get crafty! In today’s YouTube video (🌟link in bio!) I’m sharing how to DIY your own decorations at home because I know there are so many of us who either like to do crafts like this, are looking for budget and eco-friendly alternatives to store-bought stuff or live somewhere that doesn’t offer beautiful home decor options that aren’t red and green! Some of my favorite things to decorate for #Hanukkah with are: gelt (the shiny gold color is perfect), letter boards, and photographs from our Hanukkah celebrations from years past and of course candles. I hope this video helps you out with some ideas and inspiration! #happyhanukkah . . . #chanukah #chanukkah #chanukah2019 #hanukkahdecor #hanukkahgifts #hanukkah2019 #hanukkahdecorations #homedecor #diydecor #diy #diyholidaydecor #youtubemom #youtubechannel #jewish #jewishholidays #jewishmom #hanukkahcrafts

Sharing my #Hanukkah sensory bin activity if you’re looking for fun holiday themed ideas to entertain little ones in the coming weeks! 🕎 To make the blue “rainbow rice” just mix 1 cup of uncooked dry white rice with 1 tablespoon of white vinegar and add a few drops of blue 💙food coloring. Next shake the mixture together until the rice is fully coated and then spread out to dry on a baking sheet overnight. Then to create the #sensorybin just fill a tray with your ‘Hanukkah rainbow rice’ and add fun Hanukkah toys like dreidels or Hanukkah cookie cutters. This is a great opportunity to learn about the physical elements of the holiday in a way that toddlers and preschoolers can understand. Click “more Hanukkah videos” in the link in my bio if you want to see more! If you have favorite preschool learning activities for kids I’d love to know!

Thankful doesn’t even begin to describe it. I hope your hearts and bellies were full today 🍂🍁🍂 and that your wallets don’t empty this weekend 😂! #happythanksgivng #thanksgiving2019 #thankfulforyou

Happy Thanksgiving from me and my two little turkeys who I want to just gobble gobble up 🍁🍂🦃! With thoughts of thankfulness on my heart I’ve begun to think about the New Year coming up and the decade that’s coming to a close and it reminded me of one of my favorite quotes from Abraham Joshua Herschel and wanted to share it with you: “There are no two hours alike. Every hour is unique and the only one given at the moment, exclusive and endlessly precious. Judaism teaches us to be attached to holiness in time; to learn how to consecrate sanctuaries that emerge from the magnificent stream of a year.” I know in moments where I’m finding it hard to be thankful Heschel’s words always inspire me. 🍁 🍂 🍁 #happythanksgivng #thanksgivingquotes #jewish #jewishblogger #jewishwriters #jewishquotes #jewishmom #heschel #motherhoodthroughmylens #flashesofdelight #joyfulmamas #writeyouonmyheart #candidchildhood #dearestviewfinder
