Ima Chagim here!
We have all these fun Yom Tov traditions that just happened over the years - a mishmash of games, decorations, and activities the kids look forward to.
So we were sitting around last Tuesday (or was it Wednesday?) after I had this dream about a giant pomegranate - anyway! - we said, "Why keep all this wonderfulness to ourselves?"
So here we are, sharing it with you!
Abba Chagim found something sweet...
Not all honey comes in a plastic bear, you know. I found raw honeycomb, honey made by backyard beekeepers, creamy whipped honey, and flavors I didn’t even know bees could make. Come see what I found for Rosh Hashanah.

Rosh Hashanah FAQs
When is Rosh Hashanah 2026?
Rosh Hashanah 5787 begins at sundown on Friday, September 11, 2026, and ends after nightfall on Sunday, September 13, 2026. Erev Rosh Hashanah — the day to finish cooking, setting the table, and getting the kids' crafts ready — is Friday, September 11, 2026.
What is It's Yom Tov?
It's Yom Tov is a curation and inspiration site for Jewish holidays, run by the fictional Chagim family. It doesn't sell anything directly — instead it rounds up crafts, gifts, tablescapes, and activities from around the web, and links out to the shops and vendors that carry them, sometimes through affiliate links.
How do I buy a Kesher machzor featured on It's Yom Tov?
Kesher's machzorim are sold directly by Kesher, not by It's Yom Tov. Each machzor card on the /machzorim page has a WhatsApp link that opens a pre-filled inquiry naming that exact machzor, so you can ask Kesher about sizing, nusach, and personalization before you buy.
What are simanim on Rosh Hashanah?
Simanim are the symbolic foods eaten on Rosh Hashanah night — like apples in honey, pomegranates, and dates — each paired with a short prayer for a good year. It's Yom Tov has a set of printable simanim cards, one for every siman on the table, in its Rosh Hashanah resources.
Does It's Yom Tov have Rosh Hashanah craft ideas for kids?
Yes. It's Yom Tov's Crafts section is full of hands-on Rosh Hashanah activities for kids, curated to bring the new year to life at home, in addition to its guides for tablescapes and artisan honey gifts.
Does It's Yom Tov help with Rosh Hashanah tablescapes and honey gifts?
Yes. Abba and Ima Chagim curate Rosh Hashanah tablescape ideas and artisan honey gifts — raw honeycomb, backyard-beekeeper honey, and whipped honey among them — so the table looks good and the simanim taste good too.
