Hi Everyone!

Purim, the fun-filled Jewish holiday, falls on the
14th of the Hebrew month of Adar. This year Purim
begins Monday night March 9, 2009.
(In Jerusalem it is celebrated one day later.)

The J Site - Jewish Education and Entertainment 
http://www.j.co.il

has several entertaining features for Purim:

Purim Trivia
Why do people eat poppy seeds on Purim ? 
From which tribe was Mordecai ? 
Why was Haman angry at Mordechai ? 
Who was queen of Persia before Esther ? 
Esther had another name, what was it ? 
How many times is Haman's name mentioned in the megillah ? 
What did the king do when he couldn't sleep ? 
What does the word "Esther" mean ? 
How many advisors did king Achashverosh have ? 

The above questions are examples from the multiple choice 
Flash quiz. There are two levels of questions, two timer settings.
Both kids and adults will find it enjoyable.

Purim Clipart 
Whether you need a picture to attach to your "Mishloach Manot",
a picture for your child's class project, a graphic for your 
synagogue, Hillel or JCC Purim announcement, the Jewish Clipart 
Database has the pictures for you. 
You can copy, save and print the graphics in three different sizes. 

Additional Purim resources and games on the J site include:
Purim Word Search Game (English, Hebrew, Russian)
My Jewish Coloring Book - Purim Pictures
Hebrew Hangman - Purim
Hebrew Purim Songs with Vowels (Nikud)

The J site has something for everyone, but if that is not 
enough, there are now 82 Purim links on my holiday hotsites.
The sites have everything ranging from laws and customs to 
games and recipes. Site languages include English, Hebrew, 
Russian, Spanish, French, Portugese and German.
All 82 links have been reviewed / checked over the past week.

I posted a list of 68 cool Purim videos on YouTube ranging 
from funny songs, plays, parades and Purim Shpiel. 
Enjoy the videos at:

Please forward this message to family and friends, 
so they may benefit from these holiday resources.

An early Happy Purim!
Jacob
