Activities for 10 - 20 children ages 5 - 12?

Asked by judyprays (1309points) October 10th, 2008

last minute i agreed to help a friend and do a program for a group of orthodox jewish children to entertain them during morning shabbat services. it should be something like “games, role-play, storytelling, etc… fun and engaging!” it is shabbat, so it can’t have any electricity or writing involved, and would be awesome if it was jewish themed. any suggestions?

i can only think of asking the questions for to be answered in a circle – like: highlight of the week, describe your fantasy self, and hopes for next week – and then at the end tie those into shabbat themes. is this too much to ask for this age group?
