Shabbat, ("rest" in Hebrew, or Shabbos in Ashkenazic pronunciation), is the weekly day of rest in Judaism. It is observed, from before sundown on Friday until after nightfall on Saturday, by many Jewish people with varying degrees of involvement in Judaism.

Shabbat is a day of celebration as well as one of prayer.

A Jewish Holiday or Jewish Festival is a day or series of days observed by Jews as holy or secular commemorations of important events in Jewish history.

In Hebrew, Jewish holidays and festivals, depending on their nature, may be called Yom Tov ("good day") or chag ("festival") or ta'anit ("fast").

See Hanukah, Passover, Purim, Shabbat and Sukkot.

Torah Set (sku #TS63205) The Pretend Play Torah is a great start for teaching Judaica history to young children. Wikipedia defines the Torah as a Hebrew word meaning "teaching," "instruction," or "law". It refers primarily to the Five Books of Moses, also known as the Law of Moses (Torat Moshe) or the Pentateuch (Greek for "five containers," which refers to the scroll cases in which books were being kept). Written in Hebrew, the oldest Jewish language, the Torah is the central and most important document of Judaism revered by Jews through the ages, and very important to Christians. It is traditionally accepted as the literal word of God as told to Moses. For many, it is neither exactly history, nor theology, nor legal and ritual guide, but something beyond all three. It is the primary guide to the relationship between God and man, and the whole meaning and purpose of that relationship, a living document that unfolds over generations and millennia.
