Making the Seder Memorable

On Tuesday night I presented a class for kids at the Young Israel of Hollywood, entitled "Making your Seder MEMORABLE." There were about 25 kids there, along with their parents and/or grandparents. 
Technically savvy participant Jon Garber had the foresight to take pictures of some of the more expressive moments. 
The kids had a great time. I had a great time. And we even ended up singing the song that was parodied here (video after the photos).

  1. Let Us Go
    ---------------------------------
    The moon shines bright for my people tonight
    For yours, it cannot be seen
    Your kingdom of subjugation
    Was so callous and so mean


    We'll leave our signal while the plague unfolds outside
    You've been warned enough. Heaven knows I tried.

    You won't give in, won't let us free
    Still the wicked Pharoah you must be
    Your heart of steel, is cold as snow...
    But even so......

    Let us go, Let us go
    You can't hold us here anymore
    Let us go, Let us go
    Now it's time to show us the door



    There's no point for a longer stay
    Now your son is gone
    Destruction is all around, anyway.........
    Our Holy Land in the distance
    is seemingly so small
    And the fear by which you bound us
    Can't hold us, not at all.


    So let us free, so we can do
    G-d's service as He asked us to
    So do what's right for them and me
    We're free....

    Let us go, Let us go
    Now you know the reason why
    Let us go, Let us go
    Why should more Egyptians die?

    Understand, we're on our way
    While your storm goes on......


    My people passes through the sea on drier ground
    Your men are spiraling in mighty currents all around
    And from above you watch and now you are the last
    We're never going back. The past is in the past

    Let us go, Let us go
    Here comes the early dawn
    Let us go, Let us go
    Your empire now is gone


    Here we stand at the break of day
    "G-d forever reigns"
    But you never listened, anyway......
