Please
note that this product is
a
TOY,
and
cannot
be used
to
fulfill
the
adult
male Jewish
mitzvah
of
tejillin.

,,.\
This product should not
be
given to children under the
age
of
6,
as
the straps could present
{,5
a
strangulation hazard
if
used
inappropriately.
The product
has been designed to very closely
resemble real
tefillin,
however
for
safety
and ease-of-use reasons
it
uses
Velcro-style
hook-and-
loop closures
and a soft
vinyl
strap rather than leather.
For maximum
safety we have avoided the
use
of
a
slip-knot
on the hand,tefiIlin
(shel yad).
For
ease
of
use,
we suggest
that
an adult help adjust the
size of the
armtefillin
strap and
then have the child slip his arm out of the loop
without undoing
the Velcro-style closure.
The product
has been
designed
so
that
it
can
easily
be altered
for
Ashkenazic
or
Sefardic
customs,
as
well
as
for right- or
left-handed boys.
These
instructions
show
how to
make
these
adjustments,
or
how
to replace a strap that has been removbd.
A copy of
these
instructions is
also available on
our web site,

The strap
for
the shel rosh never
needs to be removed.
It
can be
adjusted
to
fit

head
by re-positioning
the
hook-and-loop
closure.
After
adjusting, the actual
box should
be
positioned
by sliding it
along the strap
so
that
it
is
directly
above
the attached closure,
as
per
the
accompanying diagram.
If
the strap is ever removed
from
diagram
and
description:
the
shel rosh,
it
is easily re-attached
as
per
the
following

into
the opening
"B",

so
it

about
midway
between
