Story Tour

Rabbi Rachmiel Tobesman will present a session, Once Upon A Time To Comfort…Jewish Children And Grieving, at NewCaje Conference in Boston, MA  -  1-4 August  2010  

Coping up with the death of a loved one is hard enough, but dealing with it as a child is even harder.  Many Jewish children don’t understand the grieving process and are thrust into a world of shiva, levaya, and kaddish causing them even more confusion and frustration. Rabbi Rachmiel Tobesman will introduce activities, lessons and stories to guide children in changing such a gloomy moment into a time of discovery and healing.  

Death, grieving and mourning practices are often overlooked in the life cycle classes in many religious schools as the topic is hard to teach. Rabbi Tobesman will offer invaluable resources for educators, rabbis, parents and children that are filled with activities, stories and explanations,. These features help children to understand their feelings and the grieving process in the Jewish community.
