Do your kids (grades 1-12, but maybe not necessarily grade 1) know the yomim tovim in order? Do you? If your children don’t, how old are they?

Just asked my 6 year old. Going into 1st.
He listed all the yomim tovim in order correctly, except he missed Purim.

I didn't test my kids but I am pretty sure if they stop to think they'll know atleast most. They are between grade 1-5.

Now am curious. Will ask them.

The question is very clear. Do you and/or your kids know the yomim tovim in the order in which they occur throughout the year?

In the conversation I was having, one person said most people do, one said most people don’t.

I’m going to test them.
But I wonder if you call the entire sukkos just sukkos?
Because I understood you expect them to know how to divide sukkos into first days, chol hamoed, hoshana raba, shemini atzeres, simchos Torah... so I felt younger elementary wouldn’t know. Otherwise I think it’s pretty easy.

No not at all, just the general order of the yomim tovim.

Everyone 1st grade and up yes. I dont think younger than that has enough of a concept of time. They learn yt in preschool.

Right, that’s why I said grades 1-12.

I do and my 12 yo dd does.
I think she would have known by second or third grade.
My son who is 9 for sure doesn't, but that's his personality

In order? Would I still get the potato kugel?

I love I love being a Jew, yes I do. Each and every day of the year! Nissan- time for matzah and wine. Iyar, let's count to 49...
Thanks country yossi and Kivi and Tuki!!
