Listen & Unwind
Original stories for bedtime and car rides, 5 to 10 minutes each. Meet Leah Adler, who is nine and loves a good list, and her brother Benny, who is seven and builds everything. They're made-up characters, and their family is a lot like yours. Each story goes with one of our Shabbat Together kits.
Every story has a full transcript on its page. Narrated with a computer-generated voice.
