A troop of Jewish Girl Scouts take part in a model matzah bakery hosted by the Dallas Jewish Community Center and run by Chabad-Lubavitch of Dallas.

Jewish centers around the world took a hands-on approach to prepping people for Passover, offering children and adults alike the chance to get down and dirty with flour and water and learn how to make the special unleavened bread known as matzah.
