“Rachel’s Great-Uncle Harry usually hides the afikomen — a piece of matzah broken in half and placed in a napkin, then hidden for kids to find — at her family’s Passover Seder. But this year, she decides she will hide it. She adds a twist — a scavenger hunt. Each of the clues she creates contains a riddle relating to the holiday; when each riddle is solved, she hands out a puzzle piece. The first clue reads ‘Karpas is parsley, fresh and green./Find Clue Number Two/Where green is the scene.’ Her relatives search for the clues, until they find the sixth one and can assemble the puzzle pieces, which form a Seder plate. Images of a close-knit extended family, with smiling youngsters and playful adult-child interactions, impart a joyous atmosphere.”—The Washington Post
