We all want to connect our children and grandchildren to connect to the Passover holiday and traditions as much as possible! While it can be challenging to capture (and keep) little ones’ attention, there are many ways to embrace their beautiful childhood and help them connect to Passover!
Cleaning
Let your kids be a part of the cleaning, if you would like to – you can give them an area of the house to focus on, make them clean for fun Passover rewards
Whatever your pre-Passover cleaning practice, there’s a custom your kids will love: “the search for chametz” (bedikat chametz in Hebrew). It’s an ancient custom that anyone can try, performed when it gets dark or just before kids’ bedtimes on the night before Passover.
Check out What is Chametz and Why Do We Avoid it During Passover? It is FULL of easy explanations about why we clean and fun resources including the best game for kids to clean Chametz!
Kids Crafts for Passover
Kids need activities to do to keep their hands and bodies busy. Crafts can be done before the Passover Seder or even during the meal. While we all want our little ones to be focused on the content of the Haggadah, let’s be honest, sometimes we need to redirect so the adults can enjoy the Seder too!
