Kids make shofars at HAFTR

Posted

Children at the Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns and Rockaway participated in the  whole process of making a shofar when the Shofar Factory came to the school last week.

The students saw a wide variety of shofars — big and small, curly and straight.  They saw how the bone is removed, how the inside of the horn is cleaned, how both ends have to be open (otherwise no sound will be heard), and how the shofar curves up to Hashem.
