Our series
Coloring books for the Jewish holidays – not mixed together, but a separate coloring book for each holiday. Each coloring page also includes a Hebrew word. In this way, children playfully learn about Jewish symbols and concepts from a very young age.
Picture books and search-and-find books with Jewish themes – told in a child-friendly way and lovingly illustrated. Each story conveys Jewish values, traditions, or holidays in a simple manner. In the detailed illustrations, children constantly discover new things and playfully learn about symbols, terms, and connections from Jewish life.
Textbooks and child-friendly editions of the Megillot for the Jewish holidays – with original texts from the Torah and the five scrolls, supplemented by clear commentaries and explanations. In this way, children learn about the origins of the holidays and the biblical texts on which they are based. The content is presented in an age-appropriate manner so that even young readers can access the central sources of Judaism.
Quiz books and workbooks to complement our Megillot and text books – ideal for deepening understanding, reviewing, and playful learning. The activities promote comprehension of the original texts and their significance for the Jewish holidays. With puzzles, questions, creative exercises, and tasks for self-reflection, the materials guide children in actively engaging with the content and anchoring what they have learned in a lasting way.
The Seder booklet series for Jewish holidays provides adults with clear instructions for the ceremonies of Shabbat, Passover, Rosh Hashanah, and other holidays. Step by step, they explain what to do, what to say, and the meaning behind the customs – in a clear, understandable way, requiring no prior knowledge. These are complemented by prayer books for every moment in Jewish daily life: for morning prayers, evening prayers, Rosh Chodesh, special days, and personal occasions. The prayers are printed in their original text, with translations and explanations – allowing even beginners to access Jewish prayer traditions and integrate them into family life.
Learn Hebrew – step by step and with success: Our books gently introduce children and adults to the language and script. At the same time, they impart knowledge about Israel, Jewish traditions, and culture. From the Alefbet to simple sentences – with clear explanations and exercises, the materials promote reading and writing. Our writing practice books, which teach the recognition and confident writing of the Hebrew letters, are especially popular.
Experience Jewish holidays through cuisine: Our cookbooks offer authentic dishes for Shabbat and Jewish festivals – from classics to modern interpretations. Clearly laid-out recipes and practical instructions make cooking easy and invite you to rediscover the diversity of Jewish culture and cuisine.
Our books on Torah knowledge make studying the Torah accessible, engaging, and easy for everyone. Torah quiz books, clear mitzvot lists, and Torah reading journals invite you to explore the central texts and commandments of Judaism systematically. These books motivate you to experience the Torah in everyday life and foster not only sound knowledge but also an understanding of Jewish traditions and values—ideal for anyone who wants to engage with the Torah in a deep and interactive way.
Jewish wall calendars, pocket planners, family planners, wall planners and much more! We deliberately omit dates from other religions from our calendars in order to offer authentic, 100% Jewish calendars.
Our concept
Maamin Publishing (Hebrew מאמין – “[I] trust/believe”) is dedicated to passing on Jewish traditions, based on the conviction that a life lived according to the Torah leads to meaning and happiness. With our carefully designed books, learning materials, and interactive content, we aim to show how trust in the Eternal One can unfold in everyday life through mitzvot and chagim – and how it brings us closer to the Land of Israel.
Our goal is to illustrate, through age-appropriate publications, how each mitzvah enriches personal life and strengthens the connection to God. The name "Maamin" reflects this: from trust grows the strength to live the mitzvot – and in living the mitzvot, trust in turn grows. A blessed cycle that fosters happiness and inner success.
Each of our works arises from the desire to make the beauty and depth of our ancestors' traditions tangible in the present. We follow their example and carry on their wisdom—honoring the teachings and experiences of 3,500 years of Jewish history and putting them into practice in everyday life. In this way, we contribute to a true Tikkun Olam—the healing and perfection of the world as the Eternal One intended.
The perfect artwork for every holiday
Every Jewish holiday deserves its own space – and that's exactly what it gets with us.
Instead of general anthologies that mix together many holidays and themes, we dedicate a separate book or related product to each holiday. This allows you to focus specifically and in real depth on a single holiday – with everything that goes with it.
Let's take Shavuot as an example:
A beautiful, but often underestimated holiday. Compared to Hanukkah or Purim, Shavuot is less well-known – but it doesn't have to stay that way!
Forgotten things brought to light
Would you like to experience Shavuot fully and consciously – with all its meanings, customs, and stories? In our selection, you'll find not only books focused on Shavuot, but also lovingly designed decorations, toys for children, learning and craft kits, and gift ideas – everything related to the theme. This way, Shavuot becomes tangible, vibrant, and a genuine family experience – without getting lost among other holidays.
Our books and products invite you to fully immerse yourself in the special atmosphere of each individual holiday – be it Rosh Hashanah, Passover, Hanukkah or Shavuot, or many other holidays and traditions in the Jewish calendar.
Facts, sources, access – without interpretation
Our works offer clear, direct access to the facts surrounding Jewish holidays, traditions, and texts. We present the background, fundamental Jewish texts, and historical contexts precisely, thoroughly, and comprehensibly—without our own theological or ideological interpretation. Our goal is to equip you with the necessary knowledge and tools to access original sources and thus independently delve into the foundations of Jewish holidays and traditions.
We explain terms, texts, and processes in detail, provide context, and make everything understandable—always remaining neutral. We deliberately refrain from personal interpretations and judgments to give you space for your own conclusions. This allows every reader to freely explore the topics and form their own opinion, regardless of which Jewish tradition they identify with—or whether they simply want to learn more about Judaism.
This concept makes our products particularly valuable and accessible to everyone: to people from all areas of Judaism, as well as to interested non-Jews and educational institutions seeking an authentic, factual approach to Jewish sources and traditions.
More than entertainment
Compiled with utmost dedication and care, we offer you inspiration, information, creative ideas and selected articles with which each Jewish holiday can be celebrated and rediscovered individually.
Simply choose the holiday or tradition you would like to explore in more depth – and celebrate it in a way that suits you and your family.
Whether newly introduced or already familiar: Every step makes your Jewish year even more vibrant.
