• 0:56
  in the trees once again. Passover is on is when
• 1:01
  everyone scurries from room to room with a bucket and

  mop or a long handled broom. Passover is on its
• 1:09
  way when all of the windows and floors start to shine,
• 1:15
  and our whole house smells clean and looks extra fine.

  Passover is on its way when our fanciest dishes come

  out of the drawer and Elijah's cup sparkles like diamonds galore.

  It has a copyright ear of twenty twenty six. The
• 2:22
  author is Karen Katz. Passover, Hooray, Hooray. Passover is about
• 2:29
  to begin. Every spring, we remember how our Jewish ancestors
• 2:33
  left slavery in Egypt and were led to freedom. Mommy
• 2:37
  and I set the table with special plays in our
• 2:39
  best tablecloth. Satyr. Here come Grandma and Grandpa. We gather
• 2:45
  with friends and family, share special meal, drink wine, say
• 2:49
  prayers and sing songs we called the Satyr that means
• 2:54
  order ky dish. First, Mommy lights the candles and says
• 2:58
  a blessing. Then we begin the satyr with the first
• 3:02
  prayer of kadush. Everyone drinks a sip of wine. I
• 3:05
  get to drink grape juice. Her cuts. Grandma washes her
• 3:11
  hands just like the priest did three thousand years ago.
• 3:14
  We all have a Hagadab, the book that tells the
• 3:17
  passover story. Everyone will take a turn reading. Grandpa al
• 3:22
  goes first. Carpus. We take the green parsley and dip
• 3:28
  it in the saltwater. This reminds us of the tears
• 3:31
  the Jews shed when they were slaves in Egypt. Carpus
• 3:37
  or parsley or other vegetable yachts. There are three mantus's
• 3:44
  on the table is spread made with only flour and water.
• 3:48
  That is why it is so flat. Daddy breaks one
• 3:51
  of them in half. He will hide the larger piece
• 3:53
  somewhere in the house. Later all the children will look
• 3:57
  for it. If you find it, you get a dollar magged.
• 4:02
  Now it's time for my special part. I get to
• 4:04
  read the four questions from the Haggadah because I am
• 4:09
  the youngest. This is my first year doing it. The
• 4:12
  first question is why is this night different from all
• 4:15
  other nights? It is different because once we were slaves,
• 4:19
  but now we are free, and we remember the story.
• 4:23
  A long time ago, there was a wicked Pharaoh. He
• 4:26
  wanted to keep all the Jews slaves. God chose a
• 4:29
  great man named Moses to lead the Jewish people to freedom.
• 4:34
  Moses repeatedly went to Pharaoh and demanded, let my people go,
• 4:39
  but Pharaoh said no, again and again. Each time. A
• 4:43
  terrible plague was sent down on the Egymptis. Water turned
• 4:49
  to blood. Frogs leaped into their beds, Lies crawled in
• 4:52
  their hair, Flies swarmed all around, Livestock became sick, boils
• 4:57
  covered their skin. Hall rained it, Locus jumped everywhere. Darkness descended,
• 5:03
  and firstborn sons were struck down. At last, Pharaoh said
• 5:09
  the Jews could go, But as they were running, Pharaoh
• 5:13
  changed his mind. Oh no, He sent the army after them.
• 5:16
  When the Jews got to the Red Sea, there was
• 5:19
  a miracle. Moses part of the waters and they escaped
• 5:22
  to freedom. Just as the Egyptian army stormed into the sea,
• 5:26
  it closed up on them and they all drowned. We
• 5:29
  all seen, Daniel, it would have been enough. Chakan LaRue.
• 5:36
  We come to the end of the story. Now we
• 5:38
  wash our hands, bless the monsta, and eat a sandwich
• 5:42
  of Monza and charl sit. At last, it is time
• 5:46
  to eat. Everyone has brought something to share. We have fish,
• 5:51
  roasted chicken, monza, ball, soup, potato google and noodle pudding. Yum.
• 6:01
  The fun. Now it's time to look for the broken matsa.
• 6:05
  My sister Elena found it the af comen. She gets
• 6:09
  a dollar from Grandpa out We all get to break
• 6:13
  off a little piece of it and taste it the rooke.
• 6:20
  My friend Ashley opens the door for the prophet Elijah
• 6:23
  to come visit. Everyone sing songs. We all raise our
• 6:27
  glasses and wish for freedom for everyone in the world.
• 6:30
  Happy pass Over. Our next set of stories are about Easter,
• 6:37
  and the first one is titled The Story of the
• 6:39
  Easter Bunny. It was published by Harper Collins Publishers as
• 6:44
  a copyright year of two thousand and five and the
• 6:47
  author is Catherine Tagan. On a snowcode day, in a
• 6:52
  snug little house, a round old couple we're making Easter eggs.
• 6:59
  The round man blew the insights out. The round old
• 7:02
  woman painted designs on some of the eggs. The rest
• 7:05
  they died in glass cups while their little rabbit watched.
• 7:09
  There were eggs, the color of daffodils and soft new leaves,
• 7:13
  and of robin's eggs, and of violets. On the day
• 7:17
  when the winter wind blew outside, the round old couple
• 7:20
  made baskets out of straw. They wove and twisted and
• 7:24
  braided the straw together, while their little rabbit watched. On
• 7:29
  an early spring day, when the snow was melting and
• 7:31
  water trickled down the eaves, the round old couple made
• 7:35
  chocolate eggs. The round old woman melted the chocolate and
• 7:38
  the sugar and the butter on the stove. The round
• 7:42
  old man poured the chocolate into tiny moats, and their
• 7:45
  little rabbit watched. One day, when the sky was blue
• 7:49
  and the church bells rang and the world seemed new,
• 7:53
  everyone in the village said Happy Easter. The round old
• 7:57
  couple brought every child a straw basket filled with the
• 7:59
  Easter eggs, as they did every year, and their little
• 8:04
  rabbit watched. A year when buying Easter came again, the
• 8:08
  straw baskets were on the table, the Easter eggs were
• 8:11
  in a big bow, the chocolate eggs were carefully wrapped
• 8:14
  and fell, and the round old couple were fast asleep
• 8:18
  but there was still work to be done. The little
• 8:22
  rabbit twitched his nose. Then he hopped up on the
• 8:24
  table and put the eggs into the basket. It was magic.
• 8:30
  The little rabbit scooped up the baskets and hopped down
• 8:32
  the lane. He left one for every child in the village.
• 8:36
  He didn't think anyone saw him. The next year, the
• 8:39
  little rabbit colored the eggs and cooked the chocolate, and
• 8:42
  wove the baskets and delivered them on Easter morning. The
• 8:47
  little rabbit made more baskets every year. The round old
• 8:50
  couple helped him. The little rabbit hopped all over the countryside,
• 8:55
  and the children knew the Easter bunny came year. The
• 9:00
  round old couple could not help the little rabbit anymore.
• 9:04
  They were so very, very old, and the rabbit knew
• 9:06
  he could not stay in their snug little house anymore.
• 9:10
  Too many children were discovering his secrets. So the little
• 9:14
  rabbit found the perfect place to make his baskets, in
• 9:17
  a shadow filled wood nearby, Only a rabbit could find
• 9:21
  the entrance. The rabbit set up one room for making
• 9:25
  chocolate eggs, one room for coloring eggs, and one room
• 9:29
  for weaving baskets. The little rabbit's friends came to help him.
• 9:33
  Now every year, on Easter morning, when the sky is
• 9:36
  blue and the church bells ring and the world seems new,
• 9:40
  the Easter Bunny delivers his baskets. Perhaps he has left
• 9:44
  one for you. Happy Easter. Our next book is titled
• 9:49

  What are you doing? Fox? Nothing much, just looking for dragonflies,
• 12:07
  replies Fox. Palls off. Says duck. Fox runs out of
• 12:12
  the reeds and sets off after Bunny. In the tree,
• 12:16
  Bunny sees squirrel, who is busy nitching. Pikaboo, where are
• 12:21
  you going? Bunny asks squirrel. I'm hiding these eggs. It's

  another hiding place. But guess who is seen where Bunny

  says squirrel. Fox turns away from the tree and runs

• 13:01
  I am hiding eggs for an Easter egg hunt for chick,

  replies Bunny. Fox watches Bunny hiding the last egg. When
• 13:08
