Pesach workshop for children

Join us as the Danish Jewish Museum invites children and their adults to a creative and fun afternoon during the school Easter holidays.

The holiday is on top of the largest, oldest and most important holiday for Jews - namely Pesach.

Pesach is about the liberation from Jewish slavery in Egypt. When Pharaoh would not let the Jews go, the ten plagues came to Egypt: the water turned to blood, frogs, gnats, flies, plague, boils, hail, locusts, darkness and death.

Inspired by the story, we make cool and colorful bookmarks! Do you want to make a frog? A mosquito or flies?

Once you have made a bookmark, you can dive into the traditions of Pesach with us. You can read and leaf through a Jewish Haggadah, which is traditionally read aloud at the dinner table during Pesach. And then the whole family can taste the traditional unleavened bread, matzah.

We offer a cup of hot cocoa for the children and coffee for the adults.

See you!
