Jewish holidays are central to Jewish life, family, and community, and have deep emotional value for children and their families. In order to maximize the inclusion of all children in family holiday traditions and activities, the professional team of The Technology Center at Beit Issie Shapiro has created accessible, interactive and digitized educational activities, corresponding to Jewish holidays. All activities are offered in two languages Hebrew and English, so they can be enjoyed by Jewish children in Israel and around the world. 

The suite of activites include all of the Jewish and Israeli holidays, such as the High Holidays, Succot, Chanukah, Tu BShvat, Purim, Passover, Shavuot, Lag Baomer, Yom HaShoah, Yom HaZikaron, Yom Haatzmaut, Yom Yerushaliyim and Shabbat.
