The Modern Jewish Mom's Guide to Shabbat: Connect and Celebrate--Bring Your Family Together with the Friday Night Meal

The author is more traditional than I imagined, but offers many different levels of guidance. The book has a lot of helpful information from the parshas and how to involve kids to different crafts to try. It takes a very start slow and add one or two things at a time approach, that I really enjoy.

This is a wonderful book for both those exploring Shabbat as a new experience or for those wanting to expand their practice. This is not the usual "How To" book. The author shares her practice, how her friends celebrate and other possibilities. There are no judgements.You will find the blessings, Torah portions along with questions for discussion as well as craft projects and recipes. Funny and thoughtful; both a good guide and a good read!

good

This book was well written and easy to read.It provided many suggestionsfor keeping not only a religious tradition but family connecting for a meal together. In these fast paced times when two people work ,jobs and activity schedules keep us apart. This book helps alot.

Great book to start your journey as a Jewish mom. Love the way is written
