Family Yearbook

What you choose to take pictures of and document makes a big impression on your children. This is what you view as important and worth remembering! Some ideas of what to include in your album: The Rebbe's horaos on chinuch (copy-and-pasted from our daily emails), your children doing mitzvos, your children learning Torah, chinuch milestones etc. You can start from the moment your baby is born, a picture with the Shir Hamaalos and the Rebbe's horaah, Tatti getting the baby a le

This influence is no less vital than the chinuch a child receives by being taught Torah and the like. The decorations and furnishings of the home – and how much more so, the things that enter the home, such as food and beverages – are entirely the privilege and the responsibility of the woman, the akeres habayis.
