Bedikat Chametz

Bedikas Chametz Kit
Pesach is celebrated this year on April 14 – 22. One of the many components to Pesach is the initial search for “Chametz” once the house has been cleaned thoroughly to make sure there are no leavened particles in the house
These Chametz Kits are great favors for a kids pre-Pesach Project. The paper bags are perfect to hold the items needed to search for chametz: a wooden spoon, a candle, a feather.
The pieces of bread are hidden throughout the house, the candle is lit, a special blessing is said, and upon finding the pieces of chametz (bread), they are scooped up using the feather into the spoon and then tossed into the paper bag.
Once all 10 pieces of bread are found, another blessing is said and the paper bag is tied together with the string and all it’s contents, until the following morning when it is burned.

Passover Seder Wine with Personalized Labels

Pesach Seder Wine with Personalized Labels


Considering we drink four cups of wine at the Seder, why not to use the wine bottles to dress things up. All you need is some nice kosher wine, and some beautiful personalized wine labels by chana Scop from Evermine.
Simply wash off the label with a sponge and warm running water, dry well and replace with your personalized label, and you’re done.

Crossing the Red Sea Pesach craft

Yam Suf (Hebrew: יַם-סוּף) is a phrase which occurs about 23 times in the Tanakh and has traditionally been understood to refer to the salt water inlet located between Africa and the Arabian peninsula known in English as the Red Sea. More recently, the term have been proposed for those passages where it refers to the Israelite Crossing of the Sea as told in Shemot 13-15. These proposals would mean that Yam Suph is better translated in these passages as Sea of Reeds or Sea of Seaweed.

Sefirat haOmer

According to the Torah (Vayikrà. 23:15), we are obligated to count the days from Passover to Shavu'ot. This period is known as the Counting of the Omer. An omer is a unit of measure. On the second day of Passover, in the days of the Temple, an omer of barley was cut down and brought to the Temple as an offering. This grain offering was referred to as the Omer. Every night, from the second night of Passover to the night before Shavu'ot, we recite a blessing and state the count of the omer in both weeks and days. So on the 16th day, you would say "Today is sixteen days, which is two weeks and two days of the Omer."
