This video came out in the 80’s. It was an introduction to Judaism. Starts with creation, goes on to discuss all the holidays. It featured a family explaining everything about Judaism. I believe the video was intended for children primarily. The “father” had a moustache. In the seder segment the wife eats grated horseradish for maror, says that if you want to feel what it’s like to have fire in your mouth, this is what it feels like. (Or something along these lines). Does anyone recognize this video and know the name of it?

I know exactly what video you mean and there is an online record of it. My mom showed me this when I was small and I remember it fondly. It is called "The Jewish Holidays Videoguide", written by Gary Goldsmith. It is available from the HMHArchive. Here's the link.
Fun fact: Alyson Hannigan is in it.
