So, I realized I was unclear about what I was asking in my last journal entry, about Purim

What I’m actually looking for is ideas of a presentation my kids can put on a week from Sunday. They’ll be able to learn whatever they need for it the day after tomorrow, and then present it at the all-school thing, on stage, the next week. . .

(1) Tie into your current lessons re:tzedakah with shalach manos

(2) The traditional foods of purim and their symbolism

Well, yes, but what do I DO? Those are good TOPICS, but that's not really what I'm asking.

How old are the kids, and how big an audience are they presenting to?

To tie in shalach manos with tzedakah, you could do a skit emphasizing that delivering shalach manos in costume is NOT the same as Halloween trick-or-treating. Or you could have them demonstrate putting together fancy shalach manos baskets.

A friend of mine helped her kids make "greger" plates: take two disposable paper bowls and decorate the outside; fill one with nuts, candies, and a small box of raisins; staple the bowls together with a stick handle.

I wish I had a good suggestion for you...I'm not really feeling too creative tonight. However, I was just jazzed to find your blog (through Zach's list, actually), that I had to say hi...It's been a *LONG* time. Sounds like all is really great at your end. :)
