This quiet Megilla bingo game is for children who find Megilla reading a little too long, despite all the fun in making noise when hearing the name, Haman. I usually bring Purim related stickers and games to our local synagogue. Smaller children can use them during the megilla reading so that they do not disturb everyone else. Clearly disturbing others ...
Engineered Gragger for Purim
I am sharing my son's engineered gragger, that he made in his "young scientist" club at school. This is a great after school club for about 1st to 3rd graders (I think there are separate groups for the older boys) where they work on science activities. Sometimes its a one week project and sometimes a multi-week project. My son said that this gragger wa ...

New: Mini Purim Cupcake Wrappers
Spoiler alert! We are using these Mini Purim Cupcake Wrappers for our mishloach manot this year. The picture above is approximately how they will look, although we might use healthier content. Here we used mini marshmallows and "Clicks" which have some sort of flour/crunchy filling inside. These mini Purim cupcake wrappers are a little bit different ...
Purim Mishloach Manot Game
Last year my sister's family (in particular my niece), made this cute game for Purim, which they gave out instead of extra mishloach manot (that is, they fulfilled the mitzvah, and then these were for fun.) The game is called Zachor It! based on the Spot It! game. The idea of the game is that there is only one match for each set of two cards, which you ...
I Spy Mishloach Manot
We like I Spy around here. For Purim last year we prepared Purim I Spy Mishloach Manot. I am sharing them here with you. The advantages of I Spy Mishloach Manot are they are easy to prepare, which was really important last year as I was about to have a baby. We used recycled coffee containers, and my kids were able to help fill them up. For P ...
