Count the Omer to Matan Torah Learning Center
This felt board activity is the perfect way for very young students to be able to “Count the Omer” like their parents and older siblings do. Colorful numbered “stepping stones” representing each day of the Omer are matched to numbers along a pathway up a felt mountain (Har Sinai) culminating in Matan Torah. This learning center also teaches number recognition from 1 to 49 as well as counting skills.
