As we rejoice at our deliverance from slavery, we acknowledge that our freedom was hard-earned. We regret that our freedom came at the cost of the Egyptians’ suffering, for we are all human beings made in the image of God. We pour out a drop of wine for each of the plagues as we recite them. Dip a finger or a spoon into your wine glass for a drop for each plague. These are the ten plagues which God brought down...

Refill everyone’s wine glass. We now say grace after the meal, thanking God for the food we’ve eaten. On Passover, this becomes something like an extended toast to God, culminating with drinking our third glass of wine for the evening: We praise God, Ruler of Everything, whose goodness sustains the world. You are the origin of love and compassion, the source of bread for all. Thanks to You, we need never lack for food; You provide food enough for everyone. We...

Singing songs that praise God | hallel | הַלֵּל This is the time set aside for singing. Some of us might sing traditional prayers from the Book of Psalms. Others take this moment for favorites like Chad Gadya & Who Knows One, which you can find in the appendix. To celebrate the theme of freedom, we might sing songs from the civil rights movement. Or perhaps your crazy Uncle Frank has some parody lyrics about Passover to the tunes from a...

1. A Passover Song [Sung to the tune of "These are a few of my favorite things"] Cleaning and cooking and so many dishes Out with the hametz, no pasta, no knishes This are a few of our Passover things.

7. Just a Tad of Charoset (to the tune of "Just a spoon full of sugar") Chorus: Just a tad of charoset helps the bitter herbs go down, The bitter herbs go down, the bitter herbs go down. Just a tad of charoset helps the bitter herbs go down, In the most disguising way. Oh, back in Egypt long ago, The Jews were slaves under Pharoah. They sweat and toiled and labored through the day. So when we gather Pesach night,...

Arianna is full of surprises! She took her time learning English. After all it is a pretty complex language. She hadn't spoken a single English word. But Hebrew? Well that was a different story! At seder one year she joined in singing Dayenu with gusto. Her very first word: and multi-syllable Hebrew word!
