Fun Introduction to the
World of Mitzvot for Young Children
"Shuki" provides a fun way to introduce your young child to
basic Jewish concepts via the computer. The program starts with Shuki, a
young boy, reciting "Modeh Ani" upon waking up in the morning
and ends with Shuki giving tzedakah (charity) to an old man. Your
child will learn about brachot (blessings) said over different food
while Shuki chooses his breakfast. Then your child will watch Shuki
daven and learn about the aleph bet in his school. During or after
watching the animated lessons, your child can jump into game mode and
play any of 12 different games that relate back to Shuki's day. This
software is reasonably priced and guaranteed to give your child a
positive, first experience into the world of mitvot.
