The enormous variety of activities offered allow one to tailormake seder so that every year produce new Jewish memories. Description from Publisher Each Pesach we seek ways to make the Seder different and stimulating, being faithful to pedagogy and halacha at the same time. Here is a fascinating Haggadah for all Pesachs, demonstrating how to be both halachic and creative, while learning and having fun in the process. - Rabbi Haskel Lookstein, Orthodox, Principal of the RAMAZ School, NYC A Different Night is to my mind the best and most interesting Haggadah to appear in many years. The authors have managed to structure the book in imaginative ways that engage family members of all ages in serious and engaging discussions that explore the ever expanding meanings of the Passover Haggadah. The book is truly a delight. - Dr. Barry W. Holtz Associate Professor of Jewish Education, Jewish Theological Seminary of America This rich Haggadah enables Jews to connect with their tradition in deeply personal ways, while at the same time opening the tradition to Jews, showing it to be responsive and flexible. As I prepared for Pesach last year, this Haggadah taught me that our most important heritage is to question. It opened our Seder to deep and exciting discussions. - Rabbi Rachel Cowan, Reform Director of Jewish Life Program, Nathan Cummings Foundation Also Available: The Leader's Guide to The Family Participation Haggadah "A Different Night" The Leader's Guide is designed for seder leaders and for educators. For the seder leader there are practical suggestions for managing a participatory seder with children and adults of different ages. Shortcuts through the seder are provided as well as short background essays on Egyptian slavery (Nahum Sarna), Exodus and Revolution (Michael Walzer), Exodus metaphors for personal growth and a comparison of Moses and Herzl. Extra activities for the seder include a newspaper of the Exodus, roleplaying for the seder, a symposium of contemporary views on slavery and freedom and on the 4 children of the haggadah. Stories of exoduses in different generations include the Katmandu seder and the last seder in Ethiopia.
A Family Haggadah I : For Families with Young Children By Shoshana Silberman	The text of this Haggadah follows the traditional order of the Passover Seder, uses non-sexist language, and is geared to the reading level of school-age children. Transliterations and translations of Hebrew blessings and prayers are included, as are additional discussion questions, seder songs, crafts, and games. Our Family Haggadahs -- the original and Family Haggadah II -- which sold over 60,000 copies last year, continue to be a favorite choice for family and congregational seders, including special seders for singles and senior citizens. The seder service (which is the same in both versions) is easy to follow, includes all essential rituals, and is written in language that is clear and contemporary. How are they different? The original Family Haggadah (the cover is purple and green!) includes words to several favorite children's songs and commentary and questions geared to young children. The Birkat Hamazon (grace after meals) is abbreviated. The Family Haggadah II (the cover is multi-colored) has no children's songs, and the commentary is geared towards teens and adults. The service includes a full Birkat Hamazon (grace after meals). Family Haggadah II also comes in a large print edition for seder leaders and people with vision problems. Description from Publisher This Haggadah is perfect for families looking for a Haggadah that combines the traditional text with child-friendly thought-questions, games, and textual commentary. The Seder suggestions are excellent ways to keep children engaged throughout the Seder (i.e., cut out 4 numbered cups before Passover and hold up the appropriate cup to show which cup of wine is being blessed; how would YOU explain Passover to each of the four children?). A perfect way to keep elementary-aged children engaged throughout the Seder service. Lori's Description Older Edition Also Available
A Family Haggadah II : A Seder Service for All Ages By Shoshana Silberman	The Haggadah you've come to love, with all-new commentary, a complete Birkat (blessing after meals), and discussions geared to older children and adults. Ideal as a new haggadah of choice, or as a change of pace for your second, third, or fourth night's celebration!

It features thought-questions geared towards a more mature audience ("Dayenu teaches us to switch from the mentality of always wanting more to being grateful for what we have. Of all the feeds that God performed for the Jewish people, for which are you the most grateful.") and the activities are more complicated ("Meet the Press" with the Passover characters). A perfect way to keep older children engaged throughout the Seder service. Lori's Description Older Edition Also Available
The Family Haggadah By Ellen Schecter	Although really intended for parents to use with their children at a family Passover seder, this attractive book may also be useful to children wanting to plan their own model celebration. Schecter gives instructions for setting the holiday table as well as a nonsexist, much simplified version (including a reference to Miriam's cup) of the Passover service, with the story and some of the traditional music and prayers accompanied by transliteration from the Hebrew. Portions of the text have been designated for a leader to read aloud. A final section contains suggestions for parents wanting to involve the children in seder preparation and participation. Black-and-white illustrations in Neil Waldman's signature graphic style complete an attractive package that introduces one of the Jewish calendar's most beautiful holidays. From Booklist This very user-friendly Haggadah is a superb choice for families with young children or guests who may not be familiar with the Seder service. Throughout the book, several creative options are suggested to help enhance the Seder experience. While the service itself is quite abbreviated, there are also multiple explanations for why and how the Seder is structured the way it is. Sheet music is also scattered throughout. Gender-neutral language is used to create the most inclusive service possible. An excellent choice either for the leader to deviate from the traditional text or for every member of the Seder for an interactive Seder. Lori's Description
The Passover Journey : A Seder Companion By Barbara Diamond Goldin	A lovely book that's intended as a companion to, rather than a substitute for, a Passover Haggadah. The text is divided into two sections: one deals with the biblical stories and ancient rabbinic writings (Midrashim) telling of Moses's birth and how he was able to lead the Jewish people out of enslavement; the second discusses the Seder service and various traditions surrounding it. Well-researched, and written in simple but effective language, this will be welcomed in general collections, by families wanting to enrich their understanding and celebration of Passover, and by synagogues and religious schools. Waldman's watercolors are quietly handsome--even when depicting the plagues that were sent to scourge the Egyptians. Useful and attractive. Description by Kirkus Reviews
Why on This Night?: A Passover Haggadah for Family Celebration	Teaming their considerable talents, Musleah and August offer a stop-and-take-notice version of the book used to lead families through the seder, the home service, and the festive meal that opens the eight-day Passover celebration. Subtle reminders of the holiday's celebration of freedom are enfolded into Musleah's poetic explanations of the symbolic foods and traditions, as well as questions that encourage participation in the celebration. The Hebrew prayers are gender neutral and written with transliterations and English translations so everyone can be involved in the service. The scores and lyrics of traditional songs, as well as illuminating comments about their meanings, are included, and songs set to melodies such as "Yankee Doodle," add a lighthearted touch for children. There are also folk stories and a brief, four-act play. August's jubilant, signature linocuts, printed in oils on rice paper, bloom in the colors and stylized images of spring and the Middle East's flowers and fruits. Their luminous colors and rich textures lend a radiance to the majestic depiction of the seder plate and wrap the images of G-d's intervention to free the Israelites in spirituality. The vibrant writing and artistic creativity of this memorable collaboration vitalize an ancient Jewish tradition for contemporary children. Description by Booklist, January 1, 2000 Rahel Musleah has put together a superb children's Haggadah. Why On This Night? refers to the traditional Four Questions asked by the youngest person at the table. This title is most approrpriate for a book that invites children to explore more than just the old-fashioned text. Children are encouraged to participate in the Seder in many possible ways. Songs are included (some familiar, some will likely be new), crafts, recipes, and even a play depicting the Exodus from Egypt. The commentary on the text is written in language preschoolers and elementary school children will understand and relate to, yet the language is not too juvenile that adults will be bored. Parents may choose to use this Haggadah as a stand-alone text for their family Seder or as a supplementary companion to their "adult" Haggadah. An excellent choice for family Seders.

Sammy Spider's First Haggadah By Sylvia A. Rouss	Invite Sammy Spider to your Passover seder! Beginning with the blessings over the candles and wine, through the asking of the Four Questions and the retelling of the story of the Exodus, this child-friendly Haggadah is the perfect choice for preschools, model seders, and young families. Sammy Spider’s First Haggadah rounds out the trio of Sammy Passover books, which includes Sammy Spider’s First Passover and Sammy Spider’s Passover Fun Book. Description from Publisher In this third Passover title added to Sammy Spider's First Passover and Sammy Spider's Passover Fun Book from the popular Sammy Spider series, Rouss tells the story of Passover and explains the holiday in terms that young children can understand. She includes little songs with melodies suggested by Sammy, such as singing "Make Room for Matzah" to the tune of "On Top of Old Smokey" and "Fill the Seder Plate" to the tune of "London Bridge" There is a checklist of what belongs on the seder table, illustrated with the objects named in the list. Then she has Sammy teach the answers to the four questions, in English, and the prayers over the candles, wine, matzah, bitter herbs and charoset, in English and Hebrew, with the transliteration for each. She provides parts for a reader and chorus to tell the story of Moses and Passover at the Seder. The book ends with the search for the Afikomen; an original little song called "Crunch Goes the Matzah" (sung to the tune of "Pop Goes the Weasel,") a blessing for after the meal, a brief explanation of Elijah's Cup with an accompanying song, and a transliterated Dayenu. No music notation is included for any of the songs. Kahn's vividly colored cut-paper illustrations add a lively touch to the informative, young child-appropriate text. The author explains the ten plagues as "ten bad things made by God to change Pharaoh's mind about letting the Jewish people leave." She includes text and illustrations for four of the plagues: frogs, lice, wheat-eating locusts, and darkness, but does not explain the last plague - killing the first-born- in deference to book's young audience. This would be excellent to use at a family Seder with young children, and at model Seders for the youngest classes at school. For ages 3 - 6. Description from Jewish Book World Magazine

The Participant's version provides attendees with all that they need to participate in the seder.

We Tell It to Our Children : The Story of Passover: A Haggadah for Seders With Young Children By Mary Ann Wark	This book was written by a Mom for her own young child 15 years ago and is now in its fourth printing. As Rabbi Leigh Lerner said in the introduction:..."The Passover story you will create from this Haggadah is filled with action: people who have feelings, ideas that become concrete, symbols that are related to a story...From experience I know that it is good for home use, a perfect addition to the religious school curriculum, and perhaps above all-- downright fun for adults,too."This child-tested book helps to make the Passover seder joyful and not a drawn-out ordeal because all the participants are actively engaged in telling the exodus story using the script in this Haggadah.To attract and hold a child's attention, it features cut-out paper doll puppets (Pharaoh, Slave, Yocheved, Miriam, Princess, Taskmaster, Moses, Aaron and sheep), songs based on American folk tunes (like "Clementine" and "She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain"), even large print for easy reading.

The traditional order of the seder is changed to put the ritual foods back into the story so they can be easily understood. The user-friendly information (recipes and how-tos) make it easily used by intermarrieds. Endorsed by rabbis, and religious educators.

The Inter-Faith Family Seder Book By Nan Meyer	Nan Meyer is to be congratulated! She has written a Haggadah with which Jewish families can welcome their non-Jewish friends and relatives to the Seder table. But in the process she has produced a Seder book that many Jews who have lost touch with but wish to return to their culture will find inviting to use. The Inter-Faith Family Seder Book is not only entirely user-friendly, it also provides practical suggestions for preparation and conduction of the Seder, and it gives the Seder service in a step-by-step, easy to follow sequence. In an era where Jews are becoming increasingly assimilated into the population, through both intermarriage and simple acculturation, it's easy to lose touch with their heritage. Getting back in touch with it can be difficult. However, this Haggadah can ease the retunr. It is very comfortable to use. It is in no way intimidating, the Hebrew that is used appropriately is also used sparingly, but in ways that are familiar. It is as appropriate to the ex-patriot Jews who wish to return as it is to non-Jews. Nan Meyer has made an important social contribution with her Haggadah. Description from Amazon.com Customer Review I originally wrote this book so that my Christian daughters-in-law would know what was going on and would be comfortable at our family's Seder table. As I worked I discovered that in traditional haggadahs (the manual used to direct the Seder), the Exodus tale was not told as much as referred to. So I set out to tell the story (as the Bible commands: "and you shall tell your child"). And, I incorporated in the telling all the facts we now know: i.e.: how long the Jews were in Egypt, the name of the pharaoh, etc. I also stripped away repetition (to do something once is meaningful; to do it two or more times is boring, especially to the children, and it's for them the story is told). I edited down long passages, and wrote and substituted songs wherever possible. Instead of reading about the troubles the Jews had in Egypt, I wrote the story to the tune of Old Man River which everyone sings. The Four Questions, which must be asked by the youngest person at the table, is set to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star ... which a four year old can learn, even if he doesn't or she doesn't have someone to teach the Hebrew version. I also incorporated into the telling all the explanations we have been giving for years to our non-Jewish guests. The supper is meant to be a learning lesson about how the Jews left Egypt. In my book, it is told with songs, games and special foods. Friends heard about my project and had sent me the customs and materials used in their Seders. After the book was written and electronically published, I gave copies of it to my family and sent the contributing friends copies of my finished project. To my amazement, orders began to pour in. With 72% of Jews marrying out of faith, everyone was related to or knew of someone who would like to read The Inter-Faith Family Seder Book. Description by the Author
