Learning Blessings is Fun!
Children will learn which
prayer is said before eating bread, drinking wine, eating fruits, eating
vegetables, and enjoying other foods. The meanings of the blessings,
how to say the blessings, and why Jews say blessings is also taught. In addition, children learn about different food
groups.
In this software program, the child is asked to join
Avner in an adventure and find all the blessings. The adventure consists
of 10 fun, 3-D, interactive, action-packed games. After the child wins a
game, he/she must view a movie about the blessing that goes with that particular
game (the wheat field game is followed by the prayer over bread, the
vineyard game is followed by the prayer over the wine, ...). The movies
present information about the blessing in a captivating way. After
viewing the movie about the blessing, the child can advance to the next
action game.
The program also includes a computerized brachot
guide. This is a data bank of over 200 food items that are matched with
its blessing. This guide is a good way for the child to test his/her
actual grasp of which blessing is said over different foods.
All in all, children
will have so much fun playing the fun games, they won't realize how much
they are learning about the blessings.
