The 5 Daughters of Tzelafchad

In this week's parsha, Pinchas, we learn about the five daughters of Tzelafchad who approached Moshe Rabbeinu with a question about inheritance in the Land of Israel.  Their father had passed away and since he had no sons, they wanted their family to continue to have a portion in the Holy Land.  Moshe asked G-d for direction, and G-d said that they should indeed get the inherited Land.  We decided to make a picture of the 5 daughters, Machlah, Noa, Chaglah, Milkah, and Tirtzah.  

Supplies:
  • a large piece of construction paper
  • scissors
  • glue
  • materials to dress the girls (can be from a variety of household items, ie: scrap pieces of fabric or ribbon, other construction paper, plain white paper that can be coloured, etc)
  • 2 popsicle sticks
We first folded a large piece of construction paper in 5 and drew a picture of a girl on the front side being sure that the girl's arms extended to the edges of the paper.  By not cutting between the sides of the arms, when we unfolded the sheet of construction paper, we had a chain of five girls.  We then used stencils to draw shapes on some empty tissue boxes that had fun designs on them, cut them, out and glued them on.  We glued on some tops for the girls as well.  We have an aleph bais stamp set, and stamped the first letter of each of the girl's names on her shirt.  If you don't have Hebrew or English alphabet stamps, either you or your child can write the letter by hand if you'd like.  We then took circles and glued them on the heads and had fun drawing on the faces.  Lastly, we glued popsicle sticks to each of the sides to use as handles to hold up the girls.  

Our daughter really enjoyed making this craft because it involved so many different types of steps; designing outfits, stencils, cutting, gluing, stamps, drawing on faces.  Have fun!!!
