Shalom!
I’m Hadar, a puppeteer and educator from Israel, now living in Sweden.
Education has always been my world. I earned my teaching certificate in Israel and spent years working with children of all ages in classrooms, after-school programs, and creative workshops. Whether teaching Hebrew or guiding theater-inspired activities, I’ve always believed that learning should be exciting, meaningful, playful, and full of fun.
Moving abroad taught me that Hebrew isn’t just a language; it’s a bridge that connects Jews everywhere.
Tut and Banana started as two simple puppets I stitched for fun, but when I brought them into my Hebrew lessons, something magical happened. Kids laughed, talked, and connected in Hebrew without even realizing they were learning.
Now, together, we make Hebrew learning a joyful, living experience that builds confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging.
With Tut and Banana, our mission is to make Hebrew a playful, living experience that helps children connect to their Jewish identity and build a common language for Jews everywhere.
