Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 4-page article I published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 5/23/24, entitled: Emor / Kedoshim: Should Kids Be Taken to Magic Shows? This article seeks to answer the question in the title, in light of the strongly worded views of Rambam and Sefer ha'Chinuch. I present my own views with support from R' Moshe Feinstein.

The Torah content from now through Lag ba'Omer has been generously sponsored by Malky M. June is less than a month away which means that I'll soon be transitioning into "summer writing mode," with more substack articles and fewer recorded shiurim. The bulk of these articles will remain free. However, if you would like to support my Torah AND gain access to additional spicy written content, consider becoming a paid subscriber by going to rabbischneeweiss.substack.com.

Even a small contribution goes a long way to covering the costs of my podcasts, and will provide me with the financial freedom to produce even more Torah content for you.
