Sending your kids to your local cheder or girls school is great—if you have a local cheder or girls school, that is.
But what if you’re on shlichus, and the only thing remotely resembling a cheder or girls school is your own Chabad center or home?
Jewish Kids Radio the New Motzai Shabbos Sensation!
After partnering up with the Jewish Kids Radio, CrownHeights.info rekindled the excitement for what was once a Motzai Shabbos sensation. Jewish children from around the world eager with anticipation for the weekend show, which features exciting kosher entertainment and chances to win amazing prizes!

The Rebbe says:
1. Our Sages comment on a verse in this week’s Torah portion which reads, “And Yisro (Jethro) said, “Blessed is Hashem (G-d) Who rescued you (the Jewish people)”, and say, “It is a blemish in Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses our teacher) and the Jewish people who did not say, ‘Blessed’, until Yisro came and said, ‘Blessed’”.
However we must understand what this means because, as we read in last week’s Torah portion, Moshe Rabbeinu and the Jewish people did indeed thank Hashem when they sang to Him as they were walking through the Yam Suf (the sea of reeds)! Why do our Sages say that “it is a blemish in Moshe Rabbeinu and the Jewish people”?
