Posted on: April 04 2017
For a few years, dozens of Jewish holiday videos were released in the weeks leading up to our celebrations, giving us many awesome options to enjoy and to share with our kids and social media feed. The fad seems to have lost some momentum but here we have collected a few great, new videos for your Passover pleasure!
New Passover Videos 2017:
La La Passover
Y-Studs show off their dancing skills in this video inspired by the award winning musical, a parody of "Another Day Of Sun":
Seder Crew
Six13 is always a reliable source of videos that are not only entertaining but professionally recorded and lyrics inspired by text and tradition that are thoughtfully constructed. This year, they offer a parody of Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You” to highlight the importance of the people with whom we celebrate.
BimBam, formerly G-dCast, who established themselves as a reliable content creator for animated Torah videos, has focused on created content for a younger audience. They are leading the pack for this year's Passover video content with four fantastic options- we enjoyed these two immensely!

Shaboom is an animated series about Jewish values and topics starring a family and two magical ‘sparks’ named Gabi and Rafael. The series is nothing short of fantastic, their Passover special explores Passover prep, Seder rituals, and important Hebrew vocabulary.

This karaoke style video offers english transliteration and translation, Hebrew and imagery to allow for learning and engagement for viewers with different backgrounds and learning styles.

The Maccabeats were the first to launch a viral Jewish video, and they have grown to be quite creative in finding ways to make beautiful and unique presentations of Jewish a capella music- this video features human voices and sounds from objects found on the Seder table:
Dayeinu with a Social Justice Twist
American Jewish World Service (AJWS) provides a thought-provoking video about the tune millions of people around the world will sing at their Seders. Do we really have enough?
Passover: I’m in Love with the Taste of You
Aish.com mashed Pharrell, Ed Sheeran and The Chainsmokers to provide a Passover parody that brings contemporary events into our ancient story:
Echad Mi Yodea
SHTAR offers a tune that shares a name with a classic Seder song that is beautifully composed for both your listening pleasure and your intellectual stimulation:
