Happy Passover, Pesach Sameach

Passover, a spring festival rooted in the commemoration of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt, holds immense cultural and religious significance for the Jewish community. This year, Passover commences at sundown on April 22 and concludes at sundown on April 30, offering families a time to come together for reflection and celebration.
With this in mind, here are a host of resources from our partner, PJ Library, with games and songs, videos and how-to guides to help make your Passover as meaningful and family-focused as possible.

SEDERS
