Any ideas for Israeli soldier costumes? My 8 year old DD refusing to be an Israeli soldier. Any ideas for her to go with Israeli soldiers? Everyone else agreed.

Any ideas for Israeli soldier MM for me (something classy) not bamba

Any ideas for kids MM for my kids to give?!

Thanks in advance

Classiest would be to include a card saying you made a donation to an Israeli cause to benefit the real soldiers

You can also give various flavors of beef jerky bec people are sending it to the soldiers to eat as it’s shelf stable

Also sorry to nitpick but “dd is refusing”? Purim should be fun for the kids to dress up how they like.

If she doesn’t want to match the theme don’t make her.

Another idea for yours is blue and white colors representing the Israeli flag

I saw this t-shirt on amazon. Maybe you could tweak the Israeli soldier theme to something like this, and let your daughter be Esther.

Would she dress up as their oketz (k9) dog?

Anything Israeli would go in the mm!
For you, think Israeli pickles, olives, hummus, salatim, pita... IMO that's classy if presented nicely. Maybe use white and blue packaging.
For the kids: Israeli snacks and treats such as bissli, apropo, klik, bazooka, shoko besakit... Maybe with a small Israeli flag.

For MM, we are doing "Manot Krav" (field rations) - the meals that soldiers get on the field. For ideas: Saltines, Tuna cans, Beef Jerky, Energy Bar, Soup Mix, Energy Drink, Candy Cigarettes, and an individual wrapped baby wipe for good measure.

If you're into homemade mishloach manos, Amazon has chocolate molds in the shape of a gun. Is that too daring for you? You might be able to find matching cookie cutters...

Popping candy
Green taffies
Fireballs (are they still kosher?)
Pomegranate lollipops ("rimon" is the word for grenade in the Israeli army)
Freeze dried fruits (like army rations)
Sour grenade spray candies
Gelt medallions (medals?)
