A couple years ago, some Jewish (non-believing) friends of ours had us over for their Seder. It was sadly lacking a lot of joy and meaning. Even though we were all adults, they dad always hid a piece of matza wrapped in linen and then it was my job (being the youngest in attendance) to go and find it. When I did, the reward was chocolate. Maybe that's where the gold coins come in??Briehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17512486265530056771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-68011621533268401542009-04-06T09:17:00.000-04:002009-04-06T09:17:00.000-04:00I try to do a Seder dinner with the family every y...I try to do a Seder dinner with the family every year. My oldest is six this year, so we keep it pretty simple too. We read the Passover story from the Old Testament. Then we have dinner and I explain what we remember (both the OT and NT meanings)when we eat each item. After dinner we sit and read the story of the Last Supper and have a family foot-washing. The kids actually remember (and look forward to) the foot washing more than the meal. Daddy washes Mommy's feet, Mommy the oldest child's, the oldest child's the next oldest's... until the youngest washes Daddy's feet (this actually ends up being all the kids as they all want to wash Daddy's feet).<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps.Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227159860629191378noreply@blogger.com
