Lior Shalom

On Shavuot I and my family go on vacation to Eilat for five days.

Noy Shitrit

My name is Noy Shitrit.

On Shavuot I and my family make a meal.

I like that holiday because it has a nice vacation,

and I can meet my friends, go to the pool or the beach and have fun.

Happy Shavuot!!!

Gil Koerbel

Shavuot is the unofficial opening of summer so on Shavout we bring our water balloons and water guns to the local parks and began water fights.

Harel Nissani

Remembering this period, Jews today count "the Omer" -- 50 days from the beginning of the passover holiday until they reach the Shavuot holiday, the holiday when Jews commemorate receiving the LAW.

I celebrate Shavuot becuase it is a Jewish holiday. On this holiday we eat milk products and eat a lot. It's also "water day" all the childrean spray one another.

Amit Nehmad

So, my family really hates Shavuot because on this holiday we eat only dairy products and we really love meat .

Any way , on Shavuot we have the water day .

On the water day the kids play water fights , it's makes me feel refreshed..

My parents' friends always send us fruit baskets .
