Rating: - Passover with the RugRats
If you have young children and you want them to learn a little about passover then try this. LambChop also has a cute one. Both are worth getting
Rating: - Perfect for what it's trying to accomplish!
Okay, so maybe it's not the MOST accurate representation of a biblical story that I've ever seen, but it's definitely my favorite! Children of all ages will delight in the creativity that Angelica, Tommy, Chuckie, and the gang bring to this video. If you're offended by the historical inaccuracies, take a moment to consider the audience toward whom the video is directly, and appreciate that Nickelodeon is attempting to educate our children. You can always go back and make minor changes in your kid's understanding of the story later on. Besides, they'll probably be thankful that the story was ... Read More
Rating: - Rugrats Passover
Best Rugrats episode EVER. This episode exceeds all other Rugrats episodes. OK so it is not 100 per cent true to life but it is a CARTOON. I mean how often do Hollywood get it spot on not very often if I remember well. The babies and the adults all get locked in the attic one by one and all hear and take part in the exodus.

No the story is not the one we read in the Good Book but it is fun and there are some good one liners (from the adorable Miss ... Read More
Rating: - Excruciatingly unaccurate!
I am Jewish, so, I know a lot about Passover, and, believe me, this movie STINKS! Why? It's UNACCURATE. How so, you ask? Let me give you a "few" examples:
-There were no telephones back then! -Pharoah's SISTER found Moses, not Pharoah, and there was a prince named Ramessis who which Moses became "brother" to him. Is there a Remessis in this movie? NO. -Temples were not upside down -There were babies killed due to Pharoah's fear of them being killed. In this the Jews are BABIES! And they seemed happy doing the work! -There were candy bars in this movie (dumb) ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent introduction to Passover.
Personally, I bought this video to show to my second grade students, but now I look foward to sharing it with my children. The Rugrats depict the story of Passover with some minor changes so as to not frighten young children. It's interesting and historically accurate (except for those few age appropriate changes). My students had a ball watching it and were able to recall much of the information about Passover afterwards. It's a movie for the whole family.
