Activities for Children and Youth

Shabbos Groups
At BJSZ, we are happy to provide free babysitting and supervised playgroups for children 6 months old to 10 years old. Every Shabbos morning, parents may drop off their children for supervised groups, beginning at 10:00 am until Ein Kelokeinu (approx. 11:30 am).  We provide a nurturing and caring Jewish environment for children, while simultaneously providing our group leaders with the opportunity to develop their leadership skills.
Our younger groups have supervised play, while the older children enjoy learning about the weekly parsha, davening, hearing stories and playing games.  Shabbos snacks and drinks are provided for all.

To sponsor of our weekly youth refreshments to celebrate your child’s birthday or other special event ($18), please contact the office at 410-764-6810 or email the office.

Boys Teen Minyan
Every Shabbos morning at 9:15 AM, our Teen Minyan meets in the small Bais Medrash.  Under the direction of our teen coordinator, our young men are encouraged to lead the services.  As a result of the minyan, the boys confidence in their davening skills, as well as their proficiency at Torah reading, are strengthened.

To sponsor the youth minyan cholent to celebrate a special event ($36), please contact the office at 410-764-6810 or email the office.
