YAVNEH LAUNCHES HEBREW
PJ LIBRARY 
Yavneh Day School is partnering with Sifriyat Pijama to bring you two events where you can enroll your children (ages 3-6) for the Sifriyat Pijama B'America program. Sifriyat Pijama delivers popular Hebrew storybooks and music CDs to children free of charge! Thanks to funding from the Adam and Gila Milstein Family Foundation, the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, the Israeli Leadership Council, and the Jewish Federation of Silicon Valley, Bay Area children who register will receive books in the mail, eight times per year. The program's goals are to strengthen Hebrew language skills and to foster connections to our Jewish roots and values. At least one parent must be a native Hebrew speaker to enroll. Distribution begins in September 2012 for families who register at one of the Sifriyat Pijama registration events at Yavneh Day School.

Monday, May 14th, 4:00 PM to 5:00PM at Yavneh: 
Hebrew Sing-a-Long and Storytime for Parents and Children
Join other Israeli families for snacks, music, crafts, and a special story time while you register your young children for Sifriyat Pijama. Please RSVP to becky@yavnehdayschool.org by May 10th.
