The Weekly Parsha - With Michoel Brooke

First Date Seder


Listen Later

Making the Pesach Seder fun and interactive is integral to connecting with our Jewish heritage and passing on traditions to future generations. The seder plate, which traditionally contains a roasted shank bone, matzah, maror (bitter herbs), charoses (a mixture of fruit and nuts), karpas (a vegetable, usually onion or parsley), and salt water, can be used to create exciting activities for the whole family! One fun activity that can be done with the seder plate is a "quest"—have each person at the table take turns finding an item on the seder plate. Whoever finds it first will get to tell everyone what it means and why we use it during the seder. You can also ask participants to act out a scene from the Passover story, with each person assigned a different role as they tell the story of our Exodus from Egypt. In addition to involving everyone in activities, you can make your seder more interactive by creating a "storyboard" around the outside of the table. Place pictures and symbols that remind us of our heritage and its traditions so that while eating and drinking at the table, you can still remember why we celebrate this memorable holiday. Finally, spicing up your Pesach Seder doesn't have to stop at activities—you can add a touch of fun by incorporating food into the festivities! Some ideas for creative dishes include matzah lasagna, potato kugel, macaroons, and more. Not only will these traditional dishes taste great, but they will also keep everyone engaged as we remember the story of our deliverance from Egypt. Making the Pesach Seder fun and interactive doesn't have to be complicated. With a few simple ideas and some creativity, you can create memories that last well beyond this holiday season—and remind us of why we celebrate it in the first place!
