Passover Seders are rich with tradition, storytelling, and symbolic foods—but let’s be honest, they can also feel really long for little ones with short attention spans. While the adults are deeply discussing freedom and redemption, the kids often squirm in their seats, counting the minutes until the afikoman hunt begins. The good news? A well-chosen toy can turn restlessness into engagement, keeping the kvetching to a minimum while still making the holiday feel special for them. Whether it’s a hands-on craft, a game that sparks curiosity, or something soft to fidget with under the table, a few strategic gifts can keep young minds entertained, without disrupting the flow of the Seder. Here are a few of my favorites this year…
