Ushpizin: A Catchy Children’s Song for Sukkot

In this sweet videoEliana Light presents a catchy children’s song about “hachnasat orchim” (the mitvah of welcoming guests) and the “Ushpizin,” the seven supernal guests, “founding fathers” of the Jewish people, who are believed to come to visit us in the sukkah. With tips for how to make this song more interactive and fun for children, this song is a great way for parents, teachers and youth leaders to teach young children about how to welcome guests into our sukkah – whether they are the biblical characters or friends and visitors!
