Students at the Selma Maisel Nursery School of Temple Sholom in Greenwich recently celebrated Tu B’Shevat, the birthday of the trees, with a traditional seder of fruits. The preschoolers also created art projects depicting trees to mark the beginning of the season in which the earliest-blooming trees in the Land of Israel emerge from their winter sleep and begin a new fruit-bearing cycle.
