Subject: Tu B'Shvat (The New Year for Trees) on the J Site
> Hi Everyone!
>
> Tu B'Shvat, the New Year for Trees, falls on the 15th of the
> Hebrew month of Shvat, February 7 this year (5764 / 2004).
> February 7 this year is a Shabbat, therefore planting activities
> take place on February 5.
> This Jewish mini-holiday is of major importance to our appreciation
> of Nature and our relationship to it.
>
> 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 Tu B'Shvat:
>
> Jewish Trivia Quiz: Tu B'Shvat
>
> Which fruit is used to make wine ?
> When did Kabbalists originate the Tu B'shvat Seder ?
> How many glasses of wine are drunk at the Tu B'Shvat seder ?
> What branch of a tree did the dove bring back after the flood ?
> How many days does the Hebrew month of Shvat have ?
> What is associated with both Chanukah and Tu B'Shvat ?
> In Israel, what happens to trees starting on the 15th of Shvat ?
> Since 1901, how many trees has the Jewish National Fund planted
> in Israel ?
> According to the Torah, which fruits did the spies bring to the
> children of Israel in the wilderness ?
>
> 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.
>
> Tu B'Shvat Clipart
> Whether you need a picture for your child's class project,
> a graphic for your synagogue, Hillel or JCC Sukkot
> announcement, the Jewish Clipart Database has the pictures
> for you. You can copy, save and print the graphics in
> three different sizes.
>
> Multilingual Word Search Game: Tu B'Shvat
> 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. The easy mode was simple? Try the hard mode in
> a foreign language with the timer on. Remember that looking at the
> solution page is a last resort :-)
>
> My Hebrew Song Book - Tu B'Shvat 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 60 links about Tu B'Shvat,
> from history and customs to graphics and recipes.
> Site languages include English, Hebrew, Russian, Spanish,
> French, Portuguese, German and Italian.
