Passover for Kids

A Playful Way to Teach Your Kids about Passover

By Karen S. Savir March 21, 2018

Teach your kids about Passover in fun and creative ways by using various printables (and worksheets), crafts from simple materials, a trip to the library and let your kid's imagination ignite with ideas of their own.

From coloring the Seder Plate to making their own cup for Elijah or even reading a funny version of Passover, these activities will help your child understand the traditions and perhaps make new ones.


Education.com

A great resource to many teachers, this site offers fun printables and worksheets for all holidays, school subjects and much more for all ages.

Activity Village 

This website from the United Kingdom offers a wonderful kid version of the Story of Passover followed by craft projects that your child will be so proud to show to the family.  My favorites are Elijah's Cup and Afikoman Bag that are simple to make with materials that you will most likely already have at your home and will keep your kid/s busy mastering their creation for at least 15 minutes.

So your kid is not into crafts... how about books?

Your local library carries a variety of Passover books for children.  From toddlers to tweens, you will find books for any age that will be enjoyable to read.
