Bringing Hebrew to Life at Camp: Fun, Meaningful, and Engaging Strategies with Hebrew at the Center

Hebrew isn’t just a language—it’s a bridge to Jewish identity, Israel, and the unique magic of camp. In this interactive webinar with Amy Ben-Dov from Hebrew at the Center, we’ll explore what Hebrew infusion really means (hint: it’s not about a limmud or a shiur or memorization!). You’ll walk away with concrete, easy-to-implement ideas to seamlessly weave Hebrew into daily camp life—whether through games, creative programming, or upgrading the classic “Hebrew word of the day” into something meaningful and fun.

We’ll also tackle common challenges, like engaging staff who aren’t fluent in Hebrew and ensuring that campers of all backgrounds feel included. And yes, we’ll play together—because Hebrew at camp should be joyful, and fun.

Join us for a session packed with energy, ideas, and practical tools to make Hebrew an integral (and exciting!) part of your camp’s culture.
