Its Shavuot! Avigail and Brosh want to stay up all night just like the grown-ups. Will they be able to do it? They will certainly try with a little help from a dancing cow!

Family Tip: Everything Counts! Shavuot means "weeks" in Hebrew. On Shavuot, we celebrate receiving the Torah. We count the weeks between Passover and Shavuot in preparation for the holiday to begin. Make a calendar with a countdown to the things your family is looking forward to celebrating together!
