Why parents love it

Built for homeschool families — not for the classroom down the block.

Five things you can count on

  • No prior Hebrew required. Every word transliterated. Every speaker note in English.
  • Big idea per slide. Never two ideas at once. Lots of pictures. Lots of white space.

  • Warm traditional lens. Welcoming to families across the full Jewish observance spectrum.
  • Vowelized Hebrew throughout. Nikud on every Hebrew word — the way a young learner actually reads.

  • English presentation deck — 14–17 slides, 16:9, with full speaker notes.
  • Hebrew vowelized deck — same slides, fully vowelized with nikud.

Frequently asked

Questions parents ask before buying.

Do I need to speak Hebrew to teach this?

No. Every Hebrew word is transliterated; every speaker note is in English. Each pack's parent guide has a Hebrew pronunciation cheat sheet for the words your child will meet. You can teach the entire pack without reading a single Hebrew letter — though by the end your child will recognize many.

What age is this for?

Early elementary — K–3, ages 5–9 — calibrated for 1st–2nd grade. Younger siblings can listen along; older siblings (8–10) can use the worksheets and go deeper into the speaker notes.

Is this Orthodox / Conservative / Reform / Reconstructionist?

It's a warm traditional pack — using traditional sources and vocabulary (Hashem, Beit HaMikdash, brachot with full nikud) while staying accessible across the observance spectrum. We don't take positions on disputed practices.

Where do I buy?

Each pack is a digital download on Etsy. Click any pack above to see what's inside, then click through to its Etsy listing to buy.

Can I use this for my homeschool co-op?

The license is single-family. If you teach a co-op, please have each family purchase their own copy — it keeps prices fair.

What if I'm not Jewish?

You're welcome here. The packs are written assuming Jewish family context, but a non-Jewish family teaching about Judaism (or a Jewish family who married in) will find them clear and respectful.
