Students and their family members of The Early School of Temple B'nai Abraham participated in creating a family quilt at a festive evening event at temple. Each school family received a material square a week before the special night. The instructions were to create a square that represents their family with their child's creative design input.
Debbie Ziering, TBA Director of Early Childhood Education noted, "We came together on a Wednesday evening for dinner and to sew the squares together. Connecting and blending each families' individual and imaginative square into a quilt, creates a new artistic entity, celebrating us as singular Early School Community, while still retaining each family's distinctive message." If a family could not join the evening's event , the square will be sent into school to be added to the quilt . It will be completed soon and displayed in the school.
All Early School programs are open to nonmembers. For information please contact Early School Director Debbie Aronson Ziering at 973.994.7016, or e-mail dziering@tbanj.org. Visit our website at www.tbanj.org.
