NATIONAL GRANDPARENTS DAY 2022!
Grandparents, join us and sign up for Grandparents and Beyond by National Grandparents Day, Sunday, September 11, 2022.
Chai Mitzvah created Grandparents and Beyond in order to pass on a love of Judaism to the next generation.
It contains our signature text-based conversations, as well as fun activities to engage all ages. The materials are designed not just for grandparents, but for any older adults and younger friends – for example, grand nieces and nephews or family friends.
Activities are designed to work both in person and virtually, as even when Covid is over many grandparents are geographically separated from their grandchildren.
- Subscription includes a new sourcebook each month filled with meaningful text-based conversations and fun activities to engage all ages. Look for it in your email inbox during the first week of each month.
- Chai Mitzvah also offers support especially for those doing it on their own through monthly topic preview webinars including tips for how to enjoy the materials virtually.
- There are three ways to participate in Grandparents and Beyond:
1. On your own schedule with your youngsters (ages 5-18)
2. As part of an adult group: Connect with other grandparents monthly, and then enjoy the activities with your grandchildren on your own schedule.
3. As part of a school or youth group program: Students invite their grandparents or other older adults. Great intergenerational program, also good for Social Action!

Hello. Do I understand correctly–Will I get a new book emailed to me to download each month? I just downloaded the Tzedaktah one. Bonnie
Yes, that’s correct. You’ll get a new booklet emailed at the beginning of each month for the next 12 months.
I would love to get involved
Great! Just click on the link above to register and you will receive a new source book each month. Please send this link to your friends – and thanks for joining the Chai Mitzvah National Grandparents Day Challenge!
I have 4 grandsons and I teach a group of women, some of whom are grandparents as well. Learn in order to teach.
