[quote=Anonymous]I like the holiday countdown idea, and get a chocolate a day until Hanukkah as a compromise. I would suggest too synagogue shopping and investigating religious schools. I've been SHOCKED at how much my kids have loved religious school (reform Jewish - my older child is in first grade). I think it's having a bit of history, and context and introduction to some spiritual ideas that has really expanded their minds and souls - stuff we talk about a little bit but not a whole lot. Jewishness is a medium/large part of my own identity, but as an adult I've realized more and more that Judaism can give on a framework for understanding the world - good and bad. Some people arrive there on their own, but I think organized religion can give some of us a short cut to think about moral and ethics and making the world a better place. It may be worth looking into. Happy holidays either way :)[/quote]
