How do you teach kids to mourn the Beit Hamikdash—when they’ve never even heard of it before?

Tishah B’Av can feel distant and abstract—especially for children. What does it mean to mourn? And how can we help them feel a loss they’ve never seen?

In this thoughtful guide by, experiential educator shares gentle, age-appropriate ways to help children connect to the day with meaning:
🎨 Color-by-number & symmetry challenges to spark conversation
📖 Storytelling analogies that make loss relatable
🧱 Build (and knock down) the Beit Hamikdash with Legos or blocks
🧩 Quiet, reflective activities that keep the tone appropriate
📝 Writing to Hashem and building a “mitzvah wall” of hope

Because even for kids, sadness doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it can be a gateway to empathy, identity, and a deeper love for Am Yisrael.

An Olympic gold medalist.
A symbol of Jewish strength in an age of unthinkable darkness.

Before the N***s came for Hungary’s Jews, Kárpáti-Károly was a national hero—wrestling for Hungary while hiding his Jewish identity. But when the mask came off, he didn’t cower. He fought back.

This isn’t just a story of survival. It’s the story of a man who stood tall—even in a N**i labor camp.

🕯️ The Great Kárpáti is available exclusively in our Tishah B’Av newsletter.
