Jewish Family Jam
A weekly musical experience for babies and toddlers, ages 0-3, and their parents and caregivers.  

Sponsored by Jewish Family Services of Western Massachusetts, this group offers a safe place to play, sing, rock, roll, shmooze and learn songs about Jewish holidays, values and culture.  Familiarity with Hebrew is not necessary- only a desire to have fun and jam!  Taught by artist and cantorial soloist Felicia Sloin, who has gone through the Music Together training program and is the mother of a toddler.  

Wednesdays from 10:30-11:15am at the Lander Grinspoon Academy
257 Prospect  Street in Northampton, MA.

For more information, please call Jewish Family Services- (413) 737-2601.

“For each Jewish holiday, Felicia weaves songs, stories and information about the holiday into the class, and gives us ideas about how to involve our very young children.  She has taught us Jewish lullabies and daily rituals, introduced us to Jewish songs and music albums for children, as well as Jewish themed books to read to our kids.  We learn songs that we can bring home with us and sing throughout the week.”

“Felicia is an amazing facilitator, singer, musician, performer, teacher and friend.  She brings an exuberance and passion to the class that permeates every session. She makes everyone feel completely welcome – whether you show up halfway through the class or your kid is having a meltdown.  Felicia brings a first-hand understanding of what parents of young children face in their everyday lives and makes this time and space conform to them.”
