Upcoming Events
Join Rabbi Stephanie Kennedy, Jen Altman from the Jewish Baby Network, and Alison Sorscher from PJ Library for a delightful morning at the best Tot Park in Berkeley! We’ll have a blast singing, dancing, playing, enjoying some yummy snacks, and most importantly, connecting with each other. We can’t wait to see you there!
This event is for families with children 0- 36 months. We welcome everyone, including unaffiliated, single and multi-parent, multi-faith, multi-ethnic, multi-abled, and LGBTQ+ families.
