Passover gift list: 4 ideas that will help with your holiday shopping

Whether you're looking for a special Passover gift for family or friends, the ideas from this list can help make this year special.

• Passover is all about the feasting and prayers, but just as important is the exchanging of gifts after the traditional Seder meal.
• Since Passover lasts for seven days, you may need creative help in finding the perfect Passover gifts that express your gratitude for the season and your love for those you share it with.

• Instead of a traditional Seder plate, today there are many unique and classy designs that can hold personal appeal.
• Artfully designed plates can be beautiful additions to the table. Hand-painted plates, plates inlaid with tile or even a plate made from authentic Jerusalem stone will be treasured by their recipients.

• Because wine is such an important part of Passover, kosher wine is another traditional gift. Today, there are some excellent kosher wines in all price ranges.
• Why not make your choice unique by choosing a wine from France? When choosing a wine for Passover, make sure it is labelled kosher for Passover.

• Again, this type of gift may be very traditional, but shopping around for a truly extraordinary cookbook can show affection and respect.

• Find online sites where artists sell their unique creations.
• Simply entering the word Passover in the search box will show you many unique and handmade items that are sure to make memorable gifts.
• From candles to kiddush cups to gefilte fish charms, the items are unique. No one else at the feast will be giving the same gift.
