shabbos

Question

At what age is it considered a child knows about shabbos? My 2 year old knows that shabbos comes when Mommy lights the candles, but does she really understand the concept? At what age do I have to stop getting her to do things for us, like shutting the lights?

Wait till she really understands. Play it by ear. It will reach a point that she will begin being careful on her own. Maybe 5 or 6. Don't push it. AA
