### ✨ Episode Summary

Tali, Noam, and Lama set out to build the ultimate **סֻכָּה**… but when Tali unveils her “Cardboard Castle,” it turns out way too dark. No sky! No plants! No kosher סְכַךְ! Together, our “engineers” explore what really makes a סֻכָּה a סֻכָּה: sturdy walls, a roof from plants that grew from the ground, and more shade than sun. With silly sound effects, sky-peek experiments, and a Shake-O-Meter test, the team learns how building a sukkah is both fun and meaningful.

### 🛠️ What Kids Will Learn

* A סֻכָּה needs **דְּפָנוֹת** (three walls) and **סְכַךְ** (plant roof).

* **סְכַךְ** must grow from the ground, be detached, and give **more shade than sun**.

* Seeing little spots of **שָׁמַיִם** (sky) is beautiful—but even thick סְכַךְ can be **כָּשֵׁר**.

* Stability matters! Engineers always do a **shake test** with an adult.

### 🎲 Interactive Fun

* **Two Nu’s & a Wow!** — a mini-quiz with silly choices and chant-backs.

* **Make/Do Activity:** Build your own **Box-and-Twig Mini-סֻכָּה** with safe household materials.

* Call-and-response chants to shout along:

“דְּפָנוֹת שָׁלוֹשׁ — סְכַךְ מִצְמָחִים — צֵל מְרוּבֶּה מֵחַמָּה!”

### 💡 Values Takeaway

Building a סֻכָּה is about more than walls and roofs—it’s about **אמון** (trust) and **שִׂמְחָה** (joy). Kids learn to share, help each other, and make their space welcoming.
