The Passover Story
Here are two video versions of the Passover Story.

The Passover Story in 10 Scenes from PJ Library

Moses and the Passover Story – The Kids Version

The Four Sons
The Four Sons and All Their Sons – A Passover Tale

The Four Sons are the focus of one of the most beloved and intriguing tales at the Passover Seder, so much so that the fable has been relentlessly reinterpreted over the centuries – in art, in music, in words – as often as any story ever told. Generations have used it to suggest how to pass on beliefs to their children, a cornerstone of the Seder and really of all faiths. So, join our Seder, including 34 versions of the story, and meet the most special siblings at any Seder – the Four Sons.
