When a son is born, every Jewish parent knows what ceremony will welcome him into the community and signal his part in the Jewish peopleÑthe brit milah. What to do when a girl is born? How can parents welcome their new daughter in a truly Jewish way, and celebrate their joy with family and friends?

In the past, parents who wanted a Simchat Bat (celebration of a daughter) ceremony for their new daughter often had to start from scratch. Finally, this first-of-its-kind book gives families everything they need to plan a celebration, including:

... History & Tradition--How Simchat Bat has deep roots in Jewish tradition, how it has evolved, and how the past can be used to bring today's dynamic ceremonies to life.

... A How-To Guide--New and traditional ceremonies, complete with prayers, rituals, handouts to copy, and step-by-step instructions for creating your own unique ceremony.

... Ideas and Information--Practical guidelines for planning the event, and special suggestions and resourcesÉfor families of any constellation.

This comprehensive resource is for parents, grandparents, clergy and anyone involved in preparing a special welcome to the world and to Judaism for a baby girl.
