How Can the Pesach Story Come Alive to Preschoolers?


When we usually teach Pesach to our tots, we have them follow Passover rituals with us. Dipping bitter herbs in salt water symbolized the tears of the slaves in Egypt is an elegant (and adult) part of the meal. But, it may be a bit too symbolic for our little ones.

Pesach is such an invigorating story--convey that to your children with the use of finger puppets. With these finger puppets, you can re-tell the story with images your children will more readily understand. Not only will they take an active part in learning, but they will also have a meaningful visual story for them to hold on to.

Before you know it, they'll be the ones who want to re-tell the story to you!

With these puppets, your family will have an opportunity to discuss the meaning of the Passover story in depth. If your kids love the puppets, go crazy and use them for the Four Questions too! You might have the first child smart enough to get bar mitvahed at the age of four.
