Simple Rosh Hashanah Recipes Kids Can Make On Their Own

Rosh Hashanah is almost here. One of our favorite traditions for the Jewish New Year is eating sweet treats, especially those featuring apples and honey. We've assembled our favorite, easy to make Rosh Hashanah recipes for kids. The best part? With minimal supervision, each of these recipes is one that many kids can make independently.
