Pesach is one of the most meaningful times of year - but it can also bring stress, disrupted routines, late nights, large gatherings, and situations that require more awareness than people sometimes realize. In this conversation, Zvi Gluck is joined by Rabbi Yakov Horowitz of Bright Beginnings and Rabbi Avi Landa, Director of Education at Amudim, for an honest and practical discussion about how to approach Pesach with greater safety, sensitivity, and preparation. Together, they discuss: Why Pesach can be a more vulnerable time for children How to talk to children about healthy boundaries in an age-appropriate way Family gathering safety tips for sedarim, guests, and overnight arrangements Hotel safety considerations, including supervision, check-ins, and unsupervised spaces Giving children and teens a way to signal discomfort or ask for help Supporting children with anxiety, sensitivity, or overwhelm during Yom Tov How survivors may experience Pesach differently Why validation, flexibility, and planning matter so much This is a conversation for parents, grandparents, educators, and anyone who wants to help make Yom Tov safer, calmer, and more supportive for the people around them. Pesach should be a time of meaning, connection, and dignity. A little planning can go a long way.
