Jewish Preschool on Sardis Plans New Playground After over 20 years of nurturing our toddlers, our playground needs a facelift. We have exciting plans to completely rennovate the toddler playground into an imaginative, nature-themed space of fun and learning. All the activity areas were chosen to enrich different aspects of a child’s development, including physical well-being, creativity, cognitive skills, social skills, and Jewish values. But we need your help. You can make a mark in your family’s name by sponsoring one of the themed activity areas, and leave a legacy as someone who cares for the well-being of the children in our community. Any donation will go a long way in helping us build this joyous place. We are so grateful to all our donors, and would like to especially thank these families who have dedicated activity areas: - Sinai Sand Dunes - Thank you Susan & Donald Jacobs and Florence Jaffa! - Infant Zone - Thank you Barbara & Jerry Levin! - Sensory Play & Creativity Spot - Thank you Addie Chesson & Family! - Simcha Swings Reserved -

Thank you Ken Helfing! - The Promised Sand – one sandbox reserved – Thank you Stuart & Erin Wernikoff! The following activity areas are still available for dedication: - Little Kosher Playhouse Area - Unity Tower - Pull-up Bars - Trike Trail - Drama Deck Musical Area - Torah Tunnels To learn more about the project, visit www.jpskids.org/playground. Thank you for all your support!
