Mah Nishtanah

why not in yiddish ?

Thanks to the music and the demo my 4 grandchildren learned these 4 questions in about 20 min. They are looking forward to Passover at our house and asking the questions and eating the foods of Passover.

my 2 1/2 yr old grandaughter sang this to me on the telephone last week. learned in hebrew day school. did perfectly !!! i am so proud to think i had a part in conserving our religion through my daughter who was brought up reform/conservitive and is now a hebrew school teacher and living a conservitive/orthodox life, such naches !!!! happy passover to all, xo rho

Think the order is out of order....

Many thanks. This will be the first year I will be leading the Seder and this is definitely helping me prepare. Having the transliterations will be great for some of our guests who don't read Hebrew.
Again, todah rabah,

BTW. That is the real name of my town.

Tired from a day of working and nog 'n evening at the computer, I stumbled across this. Suddenly this song broke the silence of the night, filtered down the corridoor, into all our rooms, and the night with filled with good memories, eager anticipation of the coming Pesach. Family stuck their sleepy heads into my study door, smiles lit up faces, and now we know: Pesach is coming!

Why do we specifically want the youngest child to say Ma Nishtana and not the eldest?

It has been too many years since I was the youngest at anything, especially at seder, so thank you for the prompting (and the opportunity to reflect!).

so beautiful

on the order of the verses in ma nishtana. Very interesting explanation.
