Kids Try a Bubbe's Favorite Recipes

HiHo Kids is a YouTube channel with lots of short videos of kids doing funny things. Many of the videos involve kids tasting foods of different countries and ethnic groups. 

This week they posted a video of kids learning some Yiddish words and trying out some typical Jewish grandma recipes, including bagels & lox with a schmear, matzo ball soup, kugel, brisket, and babka.

Enjoy!

Jewish Kids Answer Timeless Questions About Jewish Food

Why is there a hole in a bagel? Why does a matzo ball float? What does a gefilte fish look like?

The Jewish Food Experience (JFE), a project launched in December 2012 posed these questions to a panel of experts (OK, they are a bunch of toddlers) and got some funny and endearing answers.

The Jewish Food Experience is a website that brings people together through the universal language of Jewish food, which is so much a part of Jewish culture, tradition and even religion. And food is a shared experience, so JFE also wants to help you make the most of times with families and friends.

On the website, local “foodies” including chefs, restaurateurs, wine experts, food critics and writers share exciting news, recipes and stories.It's a place to find Jewish food with modern twists, international flavors, tastes for holidays and occasions, the latest about the local Jewish food scene, volunteer efforts to fight hunger, food-related events and recipes that will include locally sourced and organic options as well as vegetarian, gluten-free and other dietary needs.

It's worth checking out, and we think you'll like the kids' answers to timeless questions about Jewish food.

Enjoy!

Rosh Hashanah Greetings and Answers From Cute Kids in Delaware JCC

We're being indundated with new Internet videos relating to Rosh Hashanah, which arrives next Wednesday evening. They come in many forms -- original music videos, parodies of pop songs, and calls for reflection and self-improvement by rabbis and other serious Jews.

We've shared a few that we think are the most entertaining and still have a few more to go. But today we're sharing a video from another source that should be heard from -- preschool children. There's nothing like the answers these kids give to the basic questions you'd ask about the holiday. 

Here are the questions posed to the kids of the Early Childhood Center of the Delaware JCC and their cute and funny answers:

What is Rosh Hashanah?
What do you like to eat on Rosh Hashanah?
Why do we eat apples and honey?
What do you do on Rosh Hashanah?
Where is Israel?
What do you want to wish Israel for Rosh Hashanah?
What are your wishes for the New Year?
Can you sing us a song for Rosh Hashanah?

Enjoy!
