Upshern Kippa Marshmallows
I never got around to posting these- these are upshern kippa marshmallows for an upshern/chalaka. They are small half sphere marshmallows decorated with food markers (albeit food markers that were fading.) They were a big hit, for those who like marshmallows. If you do upshern/chalaka as a family minhag/custom, I highly recommend making chocolate let ...
Bat Mitzvah Project Idea: Lego Museum
I love this contribution by Yonit Rothner, about the Lego Museum she created for her Bat Mitzvah, for Mitzvot Unplugged. Yonit's father, Daniel is the director of Areyvut, which he contributed a piece about Areyvut's Mitzvah Clowning Program for Mitzvot Unplugged two years ago. Daniel wrote the following: "The Lego Museum was the vision of my daughte ...
The Mitzvah in Bar and Bat Mitzvah
We are happy to have a guest post by Marcia Goldlist as part of Mitzvot Unplugged, discussing using her Bible in Rhyme series as a way of teaching Bar and Bat Mitzvah. A common question asked of b’nai mitzva is, “What are you doing for your bar/bat mitzva?” Everyone knows that what people really mean is “What kind of party are you having?”. But, ...
Crocheted Kippah- Road Design
Happy to share this crocheted kippah -road design. As my son was turning three, I wanted to do a few projects to get him excited about it. We have that custom of not cutting a boys hair until he is three (I readily admit this is not one of my favorite minhagim ever, although I do enjoy the Little Lord Fauntleroy look.) I wanted to do a few crafts to s ...
New: Mini Purim Cupcake Wrappers
Spoiler alert! We are using these Mini Purim Cupcake Wrappers for our mishloach manot this year. The picture above is approximately how they will look, although we might use healthier content. Here we used mini marshmallows and "Clicks" which have some sort of flour/crunchy filling inside. These mini Purim cupcake wrappers are a little bit different ...

We love getting photos from events and this one is a fun one. Bar Mitzvah boy, Edward Jonathan Leibowitz celebrated his Bar Mitzvah at Camp Moshava, IO this summer.

Benchers in Use: California
I am happy to share these photos of benchers in use from an event in California. We love getting feedback from events where the Bnei Akiva bencher was used and even happier when we can share photos. Don't these benchers look beautiful set out for a sheva brachot? I love seeing the border peeking out in the photo on top. The covers were designed b ...
