Aaah! A spider! Kiddo wants Mimi to smush away, but instead she reminds Kiddo about the Jewish value of respecting all living beings.
Sibling relationships can turn into lifelong friendships. Siblings are playmates, companions, and confidantes, and often are the people we turn to first for guidance and support. Follow Kiddo and baby Zee, through the ups, downs, and adventures of building their relationship as brothers and friends.
What do sandwich cookies, Jewish holidays, and Kiddo have in common? A lot of sweetness. Learn all about the Jewish calendar in this episode.
Kiddo and Mimi are at the park and for some reason all of the grown ups are excited about a garden they won't even get to enjoy! Mimi shares the story of Honi the Circle Maker and teaches Kiddo a valuable lesson about thinking ahead.
Snuggle up and let Kiddo (with a tiny bit of help from Mimi) read you a little something.
