The Passover meal is guided by a text, the Haggadah. Give kids some holiday reading with their own Haggadot and other books about the holiday. Here are a few of my favorites.
1. Sammy Spider's First Passover by Sylvia A. Rouss, illustrated by Katherine Janus Kahn. Sammy Spider has an entire series of beautifully illustrated books where he drops in on the Shapiros to learn about Jewish holidays. Check out Sammy Spider's First Haggadah as well.
2. My Haggadah: Made It Myself by Francine Hermelin Levite. This activity book filled with coloring pages and stickers is perfect Seder entertainment for kids.
3. Pearl's Passover: A Family Celebration through Stories, Recipes, Crafts, and Songs written and illustrated by Jane Breskin Zalben. Pearl and her family have plenty of stories and activities to keep kids engaged for the entire holiday.
4. My First Passover by Tomie dePaola. This one has sweet and simple illustrations and explanations for the youngest seder participants.

Hello, Roni!
I really like your round-ups of religion books for children. Growing up I attended a Catholic school and I thought those books were really nice and engaging, so it's great there's a place in Ohdeedooh for that literature.
¡Felices Pascuas!
There are a whole bunch of fabulous ones I've just discovered this year: "Let my people go!" is really catchy and can even be used as a short play. "Passover around the world" exposes kids to a variety of traditions and customs, and also teaches them that not all Jews look the same (a pleasant antidote to "funny, you don't look Jewish!" There are others, but I'm blanking on them right now.
