I am dressing up as a flower for Purim!
Apparently am stuck thinking about Purim and need to be getting ready for passover! :)Ha
My new favorite Pesach recipe is Martha Stewart’s Banana-Maple Matzo Brei. It’s actually good enough to serve for brunch any time of year!
We are looking forward to planning a kid-friendly Seder again this year. We love to find fun and engaging ways to tell to story of the Exodus.
I love reading our various storybooks at night too – each with a different perspective on the holiday!
We always dress up at the Seder and talk about the parts our character plays
Favorite thing to do at Seder: involve kids in fun and innovative ways. This year I bought masks for the 10 plagues 🙂
My favorite thing about the seder is GRANDCHILDREN!!
The Passover countdown is on! I love the bright colors and illustrations in these books! Would love to share them with the kids. Can’t wait for the holiday such good food and traditions!
Favorite thing is to take out the carton with all the projects the kids made over the years and use at the Seder. Brings back so many memories. My Parents still have the seder plates I made over 45 years ago
A way that we involve the children is at the time of the two washings of the hands. One child carries a big bowl, one a pitcher of water and one some guest paper towels. They go to each person at the table and pour the water over the hands. For “Ur’chastz”, they also prompt each person to say the bracha.
We like acting out the makos with the kids!
We all go around the Seder and say something else about the Haggadah!
Hi Ann,
My grade 1 students and I have enjoyed your storybooks for years!
We’ve created a holiday album which contains written work as well as
your lovely activity worksheets.
Our favorite Passover activity is creating a Passover Seder plate. We love
creating hand made symbols such as ‘Charoset’ made of shredded paper, cubes of
clay and bronze colored sparkles…yummy!
We’d be thrilled to add your latest copies to our library!
Morah Miriam and Kittah Alef, Beit Rayim Synagogue and Hebrew School, Toronto.
This would be great to read to my grandchildren. We do masks at the seder and we sing Chad Gadya with sound effects. All the kids love it!
So many favorites…We collect frogs and put them all over the table! The grandchildren (and adult children) love to play with them! My oldest grandson (7) leads a seder for his brother and cousins on the second night and that is amazing!
Making and eating charoset!
At our family seder we look forward to having as many of the grandkids up as possible by the time we get to Chad Gadiya, and we go around the table assigning the various characters who then make the sounds & a hand gesture for each every time it is their turn in each passage. We are all so tired by then that we get giddy w laughter. Even the greatgrandparents participate!
Our entire family loves chocolate dipped almond horns on Pesach as a special dessert treat. This specialty is a favorite now for 4 generations in our family. Eventhough they are sometimes available during the year, we look forward to them on Pesach.
At my preschool seder I like watching the kids sing about Pharoah’s frogs on his head and frogs in his bed. We make a picture of a frog on a popsicle stick and they hop around singing! At home I always enjoy the traditions of the Passover seder. Looking at the matriarchs and patriarchs at the table down to the babies. To Life!!
In our family it is a tradition for our grandfather to dress up like Eliyahu הנבי??????????????
Having the family all together, enjoying new grandchildren, having guests, and of course, the food!
I just enjoy the fellowship with family and friends- my husbands sister is joining us this year. My grandchildren would love your book!
Love your coloring pages. Use them as decorations each year
I still enjoy singing Dayenu. Always reminds me of seders at my grandma’s house in Brooklyn. I always miss her during Pesach.
Love enjoying out of print pesach books from my childhood with my kids. My daughter loves her Kailua and kugel book and I’m sure she would enjoy a pesach one! 4
Oops – autocorrected – Kayla and kugel!
At seder we like to throw plastic versions of the 10 plagues across the table as we call them out – for the first born we “hit” any first born at the table – all in good fun and definitely memorable
Hear divrei Torah that my children bring home from school.
We love singing the songs. Especially the ones at the end in Hallel and Nirtzah.
I like the four questions.
I like to hear my granddaughter say the four questions and remember how her Dad (my son) used to do it. It goes by so fast,
My favorite thing to do at Seder is singing Dayenu. It always reminds me of Seders past.
I love teaching my grandchildren about the meanings of the various parts of the Seder. They’re young but learning every year. I bring a toy Seder plate with the felt and velcro foods and finger puppets for the characters in the story. Very festive even if all doesn’t get done according to “Hoyle”.
love to hear the kids sing the songs and ask questions
I love for the grandchildren to show off their haggadahs made in school and other projects. Also- hearing them say the ‘Mah Nishtana’, and give over their divrei Torahs 🙂
My son thought tonight is Passover because I started cleaning for it 🙂
I’m sure your books would be a great addition to get ready for Pesach!!
We love singing as many songs as possible! I’m always so appreciative to my children’s teachers when they send home songs with motions. The “Who Knows One” Song is great to act out with motions. We also have 10 makkos masks to use by that part of the Seder.
My favorite Passover memories are when my mom and grandma of blessed memory would stay up late cooking all the delicious holiday foods. Special treats were made just for Passover and the aroma filled the entire house. Homemade gefilte fish, matzah ball soup, chopped liver. I salivate just remembering it all!! Now I am a Grandma, thank G-d, and I am trying my best to expose my grandchildren to the same beautiful memories that I have.
Favorite pesach memory… Not fancy but just enjoyed having my siblings and parents and grandparents take turns reading the Haggadah. Just felt right
My favorite memory is all of us looking for the afikomin and sometimes finding it
My favorite thing to do at sedar is make crafts with kids and find the afikomen with the kids.
I like to give each person a chance to read a little. It makes the kids feel grown up. Also we give out candies for answering questions correctly. This really keeps them interested in participating. : )
the preparations, of course!
My favorite thing to do during the Seder is sitting at the kid’s table and flick the plastic frogs during the ten plagues. Super fun to get the kids very hyped during the Seder!!!
At the Seder, my favorite thing to do is to listen to all the kids and grandkids talk about all they have learned about the holiday and marvel at their beautiful craft projects. We love singing all the songs and really become animated. I love teaching them new things and reading holiday books to them.
Happy Passover to all!
Lots and lots of singing and
shepping nachas.
My favorite part of the seder is listening to my grandchildren recite the Mah Nishtana, and when the whole family sings Dayenu together. I particularly liked seeing the Pesach projects my grandchildren made in school, especially the beautiful Haggadahs. As a pre-school teacher, I really enjoy your books. I look forward to reading them to my grandchildren(in Israel) very soon.
How interesting, educational and fun to not only talk the plagues but to have them come more alive ….. such as talking about locust – showing a live size picture and then having a cricket in a special cricket holder/house. (easy to get at the pet store and release after the seder)
My favorite part of the seder in recent years was watching my father as my children sang Mah Nishtana to him in Polish, which was no easy feat to obtain. Unfortunately, he passed away just after this past Chanukah, but the memories will remain with us forever.
Seeing the excited faces of my grandchildren each year at the Seder when they get their own special becher with their name engraved on it, kept especially for Pesach at Bobby and Zaidy’s house.
