Our Passover this year was quite
casual and very child friendly.
I wanted to share some things I made:
1. Yogurt drink bottles made into little vases
2. I used empty tea packets to draw
these little characters
3. And wrote names on them to use as
place cards
4. I filled drink cups with festive choclates
and artificial flowers
5. And put giant marshmallow lollipops
in little bottles
6. These went on the table and at the end
of the evening every child got one of each.
7. The adults got a roll of date delight
(recipe below, if you'd like to try it)
8. And a jar of my grandmother's
traditional holiday cookies
9. Finally, I made a felt flower garland
♡
Recipe for Date Delights:
Warm up 500 grams of pitted dates
with a little butter to soften them.
Let cool and add 3 cups of goodies -
granola, quinoa puffs, broken cookies,
nuts, dried fruit, whatever you like.
Mix well, make little rolls
and roll them in coconut.
Easy and quite healthy. Enjoy.

Wonderful Amalia. Enjoy your celebrations. Jo x
Such wonderful and child-friendly (and attractive) ways to celebrate Passover. I'm sure the little ones loved it all. Those Date Delights sound delicious!
I think I'll try your date delights too. We use pitted dates to stuff with walnut pieces, pinch shut and dip in granulated sugar. Yum. I like what all you have made, you are a special mom.
I love your felt flower garland! So nice and "vrolijk".
Your table decoration is just adorable, Amalia !Such wonderful and creative ideas !
Absolutely wonderful.
Times like these provide special memories.
All the best Jan
I love all the bright colors! The yogurt bottle vases are my favorite. It's a great idea because they are cute, but safe for little hands.
This sounds like the perfect Passover. I've never had a marshmallow lollipop, but they sound like a fun treat!
Estupendo post!!!!!Feliz fin de semana precios@!!!❤💛💙
That date delight sounds awesome! But I think even as an adult I would have wanted what the KIDS got, lol! Well at least the marshmallow lollipop YUM !
How delightful, Amalia - I'm sure your guests were so enchanted! I love the child theme - so sweet. Everything is so cute and creative and I especially love your felt garland! Sending hugs xo Karen
How wonderful your table looks with all the pretty things you have made to decorate it. I like the sound of the date delights:)
Too cute for words! I liked how you incorporated tea packets! Mother Nature appreciates your recycling.
I love recycling. Beside the good it does, it challenges you to be inventive way more than a trip to the craft store ever could :-)
Love your homemade crafts and food! They are all so beautiful and cute!
Such gorgeous pops of vibrant color Amalia! No doubt your guests were impressed!

Wonderful colorful pictures and post Amalia.

Such a pretty decoration!!! The bunting, the drawings, the jars,... I love everything! Fun to make and fun to enjoy, that means double fun!
You are so creative---such amazing inspiration! And your date delights sound fabulous, too.
I have missed a few of your delightful posts but have enjoyed catching up with them now! I wondered what was in those little packages - rolls of date delight! Yum!
Where did you eat that quiche in your previous post??
Child friendly is the best! 💚
What adorable and clever decorations, so festive and spring-like! That recipe makes me very hungry - my mother used to make date bars and I absolutely loved them. But I never got the recipe:( Perhaps I'll try your recipe! Thanks for sharing at Vintage Charm. xo Kathleen|Our Hopeful Home

dear Amelia,
Such beautiful Spring decorations and love the colourful and creative creations.
Happy week

Such cute decorations....I use plastic powdered coffee flavor containers for the grand boys to drink from. The containers have a flip up lid and it works great for drinks and if they don't get returned then I am not out of a cup.
Binyamina - they make a mean quiche there :-)
Amalia, what sweet decorations. You are such a talented and creative crafter!
What amazing and fun ideas!
OMG! so beautiful and cute.. you did and incredible job..
Such sweetness! Love the handmade crafts and homemade food. You are blessed with such warm and creative talents!

How cute! Thanks for sharing at Home Sweet Home!
will your date delight work if I substituted some oil instead of butter (to make it dairy-free)?
I've never tried it with oil but I made it a couple of times with no butter at all. Just heat the date mash carefully, with a little amount of water, until it is soft enough to work and you are fine :-)
