Parent-Child Programs








Shir Hadash Babies and Shir Hadash Tots

These two parent/child programs are held once a week in eight week sessions. They are open to families in or connected to the Shir Hadash Community and there is a small fee for both of these programs.  The content is geared toward families seeking to expand their child's Jewish identity and their own family celebrations of the Jewish holidays through a Reggio inspired curriculum.

  • Shir Hadash Babies meets Thursdays at 10:45 for an hour.  The class is designed for children from 6 weeks to 12 months and a parent or caregiver.  Each class will include a discussion on parenting issues or child development topics as well as play activities with your baby and social time with the group participants.

  • Shir Hadash Tots enrolls children 12 months to 24 months of age with a parent or caregiver. The class meets on Thursdays at 9:00 a.m.  In each hour and a half class the children and adults will enjoy a group meeting time, art exploration, sensory experiences, and a brief discussion of parenting issues or child development topics during snack time. 



Really Reggio for Toddlers and Two's

Offered through Los Gatos-Saratoga Community Education and Recreation, this class is open to all families of all backgrounds.  The class meets Tuesday mornings for an hour and a half.  It is designed for children 15 to 30 months with a parent or caregiver.

From the LGS Winter Catalog: Have you been wondering what a Reggio inspired classroom experience is like? Join us with your child for a participatory Reggio experience. Explore art, nature and the classroom environments through Reggio eyes. Our program engages all of the senses and uses a variety of materials and media. We suggest all participants wear attire that can stand up to paints and other art materials. We will be joyfully messy! Class fees include snack and all materials.

Class takes place in an early childhood setting at the Shir Hadash Early Childhood Center.
