Balancing Tree Game

 

During Tu B’Shvat, we celebrate the end of winter and the start of spring. As empty branches begin to fill with new leaves, we are reminded that trees are incredible structures. This game invites you to imagine some of the challenges of growing like a tree. Can you stay strong and balanced?
