Rosh HaShona Activity

We used bean bags to pretend to blow a shofar as we sang:

(TTTO: The Wheels on the Bus)

The sound of the Shofar goes 
Tu Tu Tu
Tu Tu Tu
Tu Tu Tu

The sound of the Shofar goes 
Tu Tu Tu
on Rosh HaShona morning


Next, we pretended the bean bags were apples and we pretended to dip them into honey.
We sang the following the song:

Apple dipped in honey 
We do eat
We ask Hashem to make
Our New Year sweet


Symbolic play is an important step in a child's cognitive development. The beginning stages  occurs when children begin to substitute one object for another like in the above activity.
