Passover roundup: Our favorite Passover recipes, kid crafts, and even a free printable Hamilton Haggadah

Happy first night of Passover, to our observant friends! And to the rest of you -- well, here's hoping you score a seder invite, because this is easily my favorite Jewish holiday. While Hanukkah gets most of the attention, Passover is a beautiful time to lie back, eat a ton, enjoy a leisurely dinner with your favorite people, drink a a few glasses of wine, welcome spring, and celebrate the ideals of freedom, perseverance, new beginnings, and teaching our children well. All good stuff, if you ask me. We have an entire Passover category on Cool Mom Eats to help you easily find recipes, but I've pulled a few of my own favorite posts from the archives to help you make the week a little more fun, a little more special.
