Tags: Shoftim 

A meaningful craft inspired by Parshat Shoftim from ChallahCrumbs.com:
"In this week’s parsha, Parshat Shoftim, we learn that during a war, it is prohibited to destroy any of the city’s fruit-bearing trees. Included in this commandment is the famous expression (Deut. 20:19) “Ki haadam etz hasadeh,” sometimes translated as “for the tree of the field is man’s life.”
This is a great opportunity to talk about environmental issues such as the importance of respecting nature."
