The students used braille alphabet boards to feel how to make letters and then used lentils, beans, and pasta to write words and make designs.

The students also participated in an experiential activity where they tried to guess each other's designs while blindfolded by feeling them rather than seeing them.
The beautiful cards will be sent to students at The Jerusalem Institute For The Blind. Sarah Felsenthal, the Executive Director of The U.S. office, spoke about the Institute's history and its students' determination to overcome the challenge of being unable to see.
