Laws relating to young children: Chinuch, Shabbos, Kashrus, Learning and much more.
Chinuch is not only a joy, it is a duty, a mitzvah. To raise a child properly, a parent must master a large and complex body of Halachah. The issues are varied and the answers are not always readily available.
* What may one launder for a child on Chol HaMoed?
* How should one prepare baby cereal on Shabbos?
* Should one buy arbah minim for a child?
* May one use ma’aser money to pay tuition?
* How should one warm baby bottles on Shabbos?
* At what ages do duties and prohibitions come into play?
The questions are endless; the answers are enlightening – for Halachah is the way of Jewish life, a road map through desire, need, and confusion. Like the other authoritative books of Rabbi Simcha Bunim Cohen,Children in Halachah takes the mystery out of complex issues. It is clear, easy-to-use, and documented. Clearly, it reflects years of rigorous research, consultation, and application.
