The local central Jewish education agency in the Washington DC area (the Partnership for Jewish Life and Learning) has a number of holiday-specific resources - the comprehensive resource for Passover can be found here. It is a huge list of a variety of Passover activities and games, here are a few of my favorites:
- Many Passover activities center around children - take time for yourself and read Dara Horn's bestseller On All Other Nights, a tale centered around a Jewish soldier in the Union army during the Civil War. "Based on real historical figures and events, this sweeping, masterfully plotted, brilliant novel bridges the divide that still haunts America today: between those who value family and tradition first, and those dedicated at any cost to justice for all."

- Download the Frog Teller Game, and add a fun, easy discussion to your seder.
- Another way to help stimulate your seder conversation is this set of thought-provoking questions.
- This is more informational than an activity, but if you've ever wondered why we have the category of prohibited foods called kitniot (think: beans, lentils, peas, etc.), check out this resource.
- This website has a number of activities, coloring sheets, recipes, and podcasts.
- And last but not least, akhlah.com has a number of different Passover crafts - check out this page for instructions on how to make a matzah cover, Passover placemats, a reclining pillow, and tools to reenact the plagues.
I am new in passover. That's why looking for information about it. Have something special from here.
