Guide Review
Walt Disney with a Jewish twist!

“Torah Tots Live!” multi-media software includes a 60-minute video, a sing-along section with printable song lyrics, and a paint program with Torah Tots scenes to color. Your child will be charmed by the cast of Torah Tots (like “Beano the Becher” – a kiddush cup with a French accent) with their silly voices and songs. Recurring themes of friendship, mitzvot (“good deeds”) and Jewish identity are reinforced throughout. While, the software is intended for a child already familiar with Hebrew terms like “Yetzer Hara” (evil inclination) and “Gam Zu L’Tova” (“It’s for the best”), the Sesame Street-like format will have a general appeal for all Jewish children. Torah Tots is a highly developed educational tool that your Jewish child will enjoy.
