Step 1: Choose a Mitzvah

Did you know there are a 613 Mitzvot in the Torah?!
A Mitzvah is a commandment from G-d, it also means connection.
When we do a Mitzvah we create a closer and stronger connection between us and G-d. How special is that?

Step 2: Showcase your Mitzvah

Now that you chose a Mitzvah- it’s time to include it in your parade!
Here are some ideas for how to present your Mitzvah 

Build a Model of you Mitzvah:
Use Legos, boxes, pipe cleaners, playdough, blocks

Create a Mitzvah Wand:
Use a empty paper towel roll or wooden stick as a base, twist and tie ribbon, tulle and yarn to it, add stickers and a picture of your Mitzvah

Act out how to do your Mitzvah

Make a Mitzvah Crown:
Cut a strip of paper long enough to go around your head and overlap slightly. Cut a zigzag pattern on the top edge and decorate with markers and stickers. Draw or print a picture of your Mitzvah. Wrap the paper around your head and staple to make a crown. Attach a picture of your Mitzvah to the center of your crown.

Here are some great tips

• Filming outside? Use sidewalk chalk to decorate a path where you’ll be parading with your Mitzvah. 

• Filming inside? choose a space that you can walk through easily and will get a clear shot through the camera.
   

• Dress up in a fun hat or costume! Boys- be sure to wear a kippah!

• Ride your bike, scooter or roller blades

• Choose a unique way to parade with your Mitzvah
  Riding on a bike or scooter? Attach it to the handlebars!
  Marching? Tape it to a stick and hold it loud and proud!

• Make sure you are the main focus in the camera frame. We want to see you!

• Hold your camera landscape

• Introduce yourself: say your name, where you’re from, what Mitzvah you’re showing on your sign, and why you chose it. We want to hear you! Speak as clearly as you can. 

• March, skip, hop, jump or ride with your Mitzvah project all the way down your “runway”!

• Record yourself parading for 15 seconds
