Rebus Afikoman Bag
Rebus Afikoman Bag
The word Afikoman is an enigma. While clearly Greek in origin, there is no consensus about its original meaning, with opinions ranging from it referring to sweet desserts, drunken revelry, or even to mushrooms1!
Bring some of that mystery back to the Afikoman with this bag that shows a rebus (a series of images and symbols used to depict a word) of the word Afikoman. See if the kids at your Seder can figure out the puzzle before your nephew steals it, hides it, then falls asleep without telling anyone where he put it2.
The bag comes in two versions: English only (printed on one side with a blank back) and bilingual, with the English design on one side and the Hebrew design on the other.
If you're stumped, the English side reads: _offee : Comb : Men
The Hebrew side reads (from right to left)3: אף : אי : קומה + ן
Each bag measures 8x10 inches.
