What is a Kiddush Yom Tov card?

A Kiddush Yom Tov card puts the full text of the Yom Tov Kiddush — including the leishev basukkah (לישב בסוכה) blessing said in the sukkah — at the head of the table, so Kiddush is made without hunting for the right page in a machzor. Waterdale's versions come in classic, painted, swirl, luxury, and acrylic designs.

What bracha do we say when eating in the sukkah?

When eating a meal in the sukkah, the blessing leishev basukkah (לישב בסוכה) is recited — “Who commanded us to dwell in the sukkah.” On Sukkos night, it is recited as part of Kiddush, which is why Sukkos Kiddush cards include it in the right place in the text.

Why keep an Ushpizin card on the Sukkos table?

An Ushpizin card carries the Aramaic text welcoming the seven Ushpizin — the honored guests who visit the sukkah each night, from Avraham through Dovid. It's read at the start of each evening meal, and a beautiful card keeps the custom present at the table all week.

Which cards belong on the Sukkos table?

Most families set out a Kiddush Yom Tov card for the head of the table, an ushpizin card for the nightly welcome, and the Leather Sukkos Booklet which gathers the sukkah tefillos in one place. Together they cover every text the sukkah meal calls for.

What is the Leather Sukkos Booklet?

It's a leather-bound booklet of the texts said in the sukkah — Kiddush, the Ushpizin invitation, and the brachos of the holiday — designed to live on the sukkah table for the whole week. It pairs naturally with Waterdale's leather napkin wraps and chargers.

Are there Sukkos cards kids can make themselves?

Yes — the Color-it Acrylic line includes cards that children can color and then display. They turn erev Sukkos crafting into decor that's genuinely used at the meal.

Can a Kiddush Yom Tov card be used on other holidays?
