a b’nai mitzvah is almost always a sibling act. But for Ariella Melamed and Jennifer Raik, both 12 and best friends, they decided to share their special day together.

When the b’nai mitzvah is shared between siblings, the duo is usually either twins or a year or two apart. So when Ariella and Jennifer brought the idea of being bat mitzvahed together, their moms were surprised but all for it.

“Ariella was actually going to be bat mitzvahed with her sister who is a year older than her,” said Susan Melamed, Ariella’s mother. “But due to time constraints, we decided it would be best to have her sister by herself.”

Instead of rushing Ariella into a commitment she wasn’t ready for, Ariella’s mother felt it was best to wait until her daughter was of the bat mitzvah age, 12 to 13. Over the summer, Ariella and Jennifer started attending their friends’ bar and bat mitzvahs and soon after decided they wanted to do it together.

Ariella and Jennifer were long-lost best friends. They were in first grade together and then separated because of school boundary zoning. They were reunited in sixth grade. After rekindling their friendship, the girls decided to make their bat mitzvah commitment together. Following tradition, the girls began their Hebrew studies.

“It was really cute because you would hear Jennifer walking around the house saying her prayers. Then Ariella would call her, and they would practice together over the phone. Both girls were very dedicated,” said Jennifer’s mother, Nancy Raik.

Both moms work full-time, and each girl is involved in sports and after-school activities, but they took advantage of every free moment to study and party plan. Using their time wisely, the moms would plan together during the girls’ study sessions with the rabbi.

The girls decided on a nightclub theme for their party. Decked out in club attire, guests enjoyed dancing, a limo ride for the girls’ closest friends, kid-friendly food, including chicken fingers and an ice cream bar, and the traditional candle-lighting ceremony.

“This was a kids’ party, and we really wanted to make sure of that. This day was for and about the girls,” Nancy said.

Planning a party for two girls who aren’t related could easily cause friction. Poten-

8

tial disaster could include disagreement on, well, everything. But not for this duo.

Because they have the same friends, there was no stress when making the guest list.

The girls’ birthdays are only six weeks apart, so choosing a date for the event was easy.

In fact, the entire planning process brought both sides even closer.

They hand-made the majority of the decorations, which not only cut on costs but allowed bonding time — and not just for the girls but for the moms, as well.

“Their bat mitzvah was in April, but we still hang out. We all shared Mother’s Day together,” Nancy Raik said. “We’ve gone to dinner, been to the movies. The girls spend the night at each other’s houses. Susan is like a second mom to Jennifer and like a sister to me.”

The day turned out to be a joyous occasion just like a single bar or bat mitzvah.

“I sat there the day of and just got tearyeyed,” Nancy Raik said. “They looked like beautiful young ladies up on the bimah. I am just so proud of them and all the hard work they put into that day.”

While it may have been unconventional to have two best friends share their bat mitzvah day, the girls, now Jewish adult women, come away with a stronger friendship and memories to last a lifetime.

Growing Up,

giving back

Youths learn life lessons from mitzvah projects

By Nadia Sorocka

“One should use one’s face, hands and feet to honor one’s Creator.” Tosefta Brachot 4:1

In Judaism,

becoming a bar or bat mitzvah simply means that a boy or a girl is entering adulthood and taking on leadership and control of their Jewish practices. After their bar/ bat mitzvah, they will become responsible for their adherence to Jewish laws, traditions and ethics.

A large part of Jewish obligation involves social action; this is why in recent years many synagogues have asked as part of the preparation for their bar/bat mitzvah a preteen does a mitzvah project. The goal of a mitzvah project is to guide the preteen into a life of leadership in taking care of

the Earth, whether it is the humans, animals or planet itself, said Rabbi Cheryl Jacobs of Kol Ami Emanu-El in Plantation.

“A mitzvah project makes them aware there is a greater community. It is an opportunity to open their eyes to a world much greater then them,” Jacobs said.

The project usually takes between six months to a year to complete. Along the way, preteens will pick a project, raise funds and execute the event or events. This all happens under the guidance and with the help of the community, including the tween’s rabbi, tutor, family and friends.

Often the most difficult step of mitzvah project is actually choosing what to do. Here are some basic questions preteens can ask themselves before settling on a project: What am I good at? What are my interests? What do I want to help fix in the world? Who can help me reach my goal?

“When picking a mitzvah project, it should be something they want to really commit themselves to for life,” Jacobs said.

Aaron Sigal, 13, a member of Ramat Shalom of Plantation, decided for his project he would raise $1,200 to help sponsor a boy in Coral Springs who otherwise could not afford to have his own bar mitzvah.

“I found preparing for my bar mitzvah was very rewarding,” he said. “I experienced personal growth and became more a part of my religion. I wanted someone else to have that same feeling.”

Aaron put on a Family Fun Day at Groofles Ice Creamery, a neighborhood garage sale and a girl’s night out. Along with raising money, Aaron enlisted the help of his tutor, Amy Freund, who volunteered to tutor the boy for his bar mitzvah. Even his friend, Sam Savage, 13, helped raise money and got a little dirty helping scoop ice cream at Groofles.

Alix Klein, 11, a member at Beth Israel Congregation of Miami Beach, loves helping

12

children and raised money for ALYN Hospital, a comprehensive rehabilitation center in Jerusalem, Israel, where her cousin once received treatment. Alix organized a charity concert with New York-based Jewish rock band Yaakov Chesed.

Alix worked closely with the American Friends of ALYN Hospital’s Mitzvah of Love program. Together with her family and the program, she created a website that allowed her friends and family to donate money in lieu of gifts, said her mother, Leah Klein.

Alix’s goal was to raise $10,000 through the website and charity concert at Temple Beth Shumel-Cuban Hebrew.

“I was really proud to inspire all my friends to give and by their generosity in my name,” Alix said. “After the concert, I was able to contribute more money to the hospital, about $20,000.”

Cathy Lanyard, executive director for the American Friends of ALYN Hospital, said, “Mitzvah projects are about putting the mitzvah back in bar/bat mitzvahs and making it more than a ceremony and gifts.”

Mitzvah projects are a great way for preteens to see how much a little hard work can go a long way.

“Giving back to the community makes you a part of the community,” Alix said.

Both Aaron and Alix have learned a lot from their projects and hope to continue their good work as they get older.

This summer, Alix will visit the ALYN Hospital with her family during a trip to Israel.

Aaron continued to help his new friend in Coral Springs, giving advice on how to deal with the stress of reading the torah in front of the synagogue. Aaron and his mother also helped pick out decoration and food for the ceremony.

“I learned that in making a difference everything counts,” he said. “Little things lead to big things.”

The

party is in the details

Tips for choosing favors and novelties for the reception

By Ifonia Jean

14

When

it comes to planning a successful party, the smallest details are sometimes the most important. And among those details are favors and novelties. These small (and sometimes big) souvenirs often symbolize gratitude and memories of a good time. Nevertheless, they are important accessories to have when throwing a bar or bat mitzvah, especially because you’ll be dealing with young guests.

Because there is such a vast variety of favors to choose from online and in stores, two important factors you want consider are your child’s interest and the theme. Make sure to involve your child in the decision-making process.

Once you’ve decided on a theme, the novelties and favors should be an easy feat. Having been in the business for 15 years, Steven Feldman of In Touch Creations knows a thing or two when it comes to deciding on the perfect party favors.

“When you’re looking for favors, you want to go for something different, something that mentions the guest of honor and something that both the adults and children can take home,” he said. “For example, our

tomers love our ‘foto-tunes,’ which is a very popular selling product of ours. We take the guest of honor’s picture and put his/her head on a cartoon body of their choice.”

It’s also good to get something that people can use or, in many cases, eat. Customized Tshirts and hats are good to give out, as well.

Go for personalized candy, such as a box of chocolates in the shape of a picture frame as seen on www.weetpersonalities.com. Not only is it unique, but it will resonate with your guests for years to come.

One of Sweet Personalities’ best-selling items is the chocolate CD with the picture of the bar or bat mitzvah in the center for adults. For the kids, you may want to purchase little toys, such as an Aleph Bet Sliding Puzzle or Aleph Bet Bracelet Kit (www. oytoys.com).

If you want to find ways to save money on novelties, perhaps choose a photographer who is able to print pictures on-site and place them in key chains or personalized photo jackets for guests to take home.

“That’s something people are doing these days to avoid having to go out and purchase or order favors in large quantities,” Feldman said. “It works because you won’t feel like you wasted your money if a guest doesn’t show up.”

According to Emitz, a party-planning website, you can be creatively frugal with favors. For example, if you’re going with an art theme, you can buy a whole bunch of art supplies from the dollar store. To make them work as centerpieces, all you have to do is fill tall glass cylinders with those supplies and top it off with flowers for a more elegant look. When the party’s over, give out the supplies. The children will love them, and they’ll definitely get use out of them.

No matter how over-the-top or low-key you want your child’s bar or bat mitzvah to be, all it takes is some brainstorming and research to find the perfect and suitable novelties to add that special flavor to your event.
