Hi Everyone!

Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year 5765, begins 
Wednesday evening, September 15, 2004 and continues until 
Friday evening, September 17, 2004.

The J Site - Jewish Education and Entertainment 
<a href="http://www.j.co.il";> 
http://www.j.co.il 
</a>
has several entertaining features to celebrate the new year:

Jewish Trivia Quiz: Rosh Hashana

Which special prayer is said in the days before Rosh Hashana ? 
Which group of foods is customary to eat on Rosh Hashana ? 
What are the other three names of Rosh Hashana ? 
How many times is the shofar sounded during Rosh Hashana ? 
Which food is customary NOT to eat on Rosh Hashana ?

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice 
Flash quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.

Rosh Hashana Clipart
Whether you need a picture for your child's class project, 
a graphic for your synagogue, Hillel or JCC new year
announcement, the Jewish Clipart Database has the pictures
for you. You can copy, save and print the graphics in
three different sizes. 

Multilingual Hangman - Rosh Hashana
It's the classic Hangman game recreated in an online Flash version. 
If you expect your simple "hang the man by the rope" drawing then 
you are in for a surprise. The game can be played in English or 
Hebrew. 

Multilingual Word Search Game: Rosh Hashana
Enter the Multilingual Word Search game and choose the
language you would like to play in: English, Hebrew or
Russian. There is an easy mode for the kids and a harder
mode for us big kids. Each game is randomly generated.
You can even print out a blank game (and the solution page) for 
offline playing. 

My Jewish Coloring Book - Rosh Hashan Pictures
Young kids love to draw and this online coloring book
is made just for them. Three different size "brushes"
and 24 colors to choose from. You can print the completed
color pictures or print black and white outlines to color offline. 

My Hebrew Song Book - Rosh Hashana Hebrew songs (with vowels)
for viewing and printing. All songs are in graphic format so you
do not need Hebrew installed to view or print them. 

The J site has something for everyone, but if that is not 
enough, I posted on my website 90 links about Rosh Hashana, 
from laws and customs to games and recipes.
Site languages include English,  Hebrew, French, German, Italian, 
Portugese, Russian and Spanish.
All 90 links have been reviewed / checked this month.

Please forward this message to relatives and friends, 
so they may benefit from these holiday resources.

Enjoy!
Chodesh Tov - Have a Good Month,
