Every year we provide breakfast for the 7th grade religious school program in order to get closer to the fathers. This year of course there was no breakfast so we purchased tefillin for the entire 7th grade with instructions on how to use them. We had the religious school director do the instruction.
In the overview.

Self Assessment
We did this on faith that it may have an impact even though we did want to do it in person. We plan to try next year to do it in person so we can gauge the results.
Impact is difficult to measure since covid prevented us from doing this in person
Some men never put on tefillin, we hope by doing this with their children they may be inspired.
