We made two programs today at the Stevenson Public school in Melrose Park, near Chicago.

Mr. Benjamin Kende invited us to a very nice afternoon with the school where he teaches.

The kids knew almost nothing about Israel when we came to talk to them and we had a great opportunity to give them some info about Israel.

We watched The Israeli Family video clip, we talked about the Israeli story and what are the similarities between Israel and the states.

We tought the kids how to write their names in Hebrew and they made a wonderful job.

You can see their works hang on a string in the middle of the class.

We got great feedbacks from the kids who really wanted to know more and asked wonderful questions.
