Yes, we know this night is different from all other nights, especially with everything that’s going on around the world. Every Passover, families look forward to spending time together over a seder, but this year that’s not an option. Many families are choosing to hold virtual seders over Zoom and we’ve got the best tips for making your holiday still feel special even if it’s virtual.
Seek Out Online Resources
There are tons of resources online including virtual Hagaddahs and literature on how to host a Zoom seder.
Get Creative With the Seder Plate
Some of the foods you’re used to seeing on the seder plate may not be available, so instead of getting bummed about it, get creative by using a printed picture of the item or swapping it for something else.
Rethink Props
If you can’t get your hands on plaster frogs to throw on the table for the second plague, use it as an opportunity to let your kids see who can do the highest froggy jump.
Talk About What’s Happening
Use this time with your family to talk about things like, “Why is this seder different from other years? and Why do you think it’s important to have a seder during this time?
