Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Hello, We have a grandaughter who has just announced her Bat Mitvah. Could anyone tell me what is considered an appropriate gift or response for this grand occasion? Thanks, Gloria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2001 Report Share Posted February 14, 2001 Hi Glo, I can ask my friend Cindy. Ironically, she is in Seattle at the moment, attending her niece's Bat Mitvah. She should be back soon and should be full of usefull information. David At 05:12 PM 2/14/2001 -0500, you wrote: >Hello, > >We have a grandaughter who has just announced her Bat Mitvah.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2001 Report Share Posted February 15, 2001 It is customary to give money -- and of course this is what 13 year olds want most of all! The number 18 in Hebrew corresponds to life so folks often give $18 or multiples thereof. A lot of open-hearted kids share their gifts with charities or with less fortunate children. Mazel Tov!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2001 Report Share Posted February 15, 2001 Re: Is there a rabbi in the house? Please tell Cindy thank you, David. It seems a nice idea to give some personal keepsake of the occasion, along with money. And thanks for writing as well, Holly. Nice to have such an ecletic family here.
