Mini Hagaddah

Download a 4-page Mini Hagaddah covering all the basics while being fun, interactive and easy to print! The cover page is dedicated to the signature of family/friends who joined you that year. It will become a beautiful memory if you use the same Hagaddah year after year as I do! I’m reminded of the handwriting of children who have grown, of those who have passed and the year they participated in my seder and friends who attended. Revive your Seder attendees by telling the story of the Exodus in rap!
