The Hayom Yom for chof-beis Teves urges parents to spend a half-hour each day considering the chinuch of one’s children and “to do everything in his power – and beyond his power – to inspire children to follow the path along which they are being guided.” Being a parent is entirely absorbing. It’s an identity, an occupation and a mission. There is always more to learn, and we can all benefit from encouragement and inspiration.
On Tuesday, February 12, zayin Adar Rishon, Junior N’shei will be holding its annual Chinuch Event for women, presenting two fabulous speakers and a children’s expo. This wonderful event is sure to inspire you and teach you a new thing or two about chinuch.
