Homeschooling Without a Religious School: How We Teach Heritage at Home
September 18, 2026 · 6 min read
We are not in temple every week. We are a family learning as we go, blending tradition with real life in Las Vegas.
Heritage by doing
We light Shabbat candles on Friday. We tell the Hanukkah story while we light each night. We ask the four questions at our own Passover table. The holidays are the curriculum.
Books we could not find
When I went looking for gentle picture books about Jewish life for my boys, I could not find the ones I wanted. So I wrote them. That is how Little Jewish Hearts began.
One homeschool idea a week
Plus new book news and the occasional free sample page. No spam, ever.
