5.0 out of 5 stars A sure winner for a great seder with children!, May 15, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: A Children's Haggadah (Paperback)

This haggadah gets right to the heart of the Exodus. Children and adults alike will enjoy the retelling of the story. If you are used to having boring seders, that no one understands, this haggadah will change all of your upcoming passovers!

This haggadah does have hebrew throughout, with the English translation directly underneath. It also has all the great songs of Passover, with the music as well.

This is a very special haggadah. We can hardly wait for next year

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Haggadah for elementary school age kids, March 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: A Children's Haggadah (Paperback)

Our children are 4, 6, and 10. This Haggadah is terrific for all of them. It is beautifully illustrated. It has all of the traditional elements of a seder presented in a way that kids can understand, and also will enable you to get through the seder on a brief enough timeline to get the point across within a child's attention span. The book is entirely in English, but also shows Hebrew words for things in the seder and Hebrew blessings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Haggadah for young children, March 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: A Children's Haggadah (Paperback)

We fell in love with this Haggadah. Our three year old was very interested in hearing the story in terms she could understand, the text refers to slavery in terms of not being able to go to movies, school, etc. We added playgroups, no treats, and so on. She loved the illustrations and was able to stay interested throughout the book. We look forward to using it this year for our seder. I beleive young children will be able to stay interested in this haggadah much longer than a traditional one. I don't think it is realistic to expect children three to five to be able to sit for an hour of anything. This book should make our evening flow nicely and fun for everyone. The text is not so simplistic that Parents would not enjoy it as much as the children.
