Creating our own traditions

When did you decide that your old Haggadah just wasn't working for you anymore? Do you tend to use bits and pieces from different ones? Do you leave it up to whomever hosts to decide? I've been struggling a bit because I know that the one we've used for years and years hardly satisfies the adults, let alone my almost 4-year-old. I tried to explain the text to him in simple English, but I'm not sure that the content is relevant to him. And isn't the point of the Haggadah to tell the story? (L'hagid means to tell!) Last year, when I was 9 months pregnant at the seder, I brought along a handful of alternate texts and readings but they weren't particularly well-received. My goal for the coming year is to take another step forward so that next year not only my older son but even my younger one will understand a bit of the seder. I would love to hear suggestions and comments about how your seders have evolved since having kids. Thanks!
