Whether you are Jewish or not you will still love to read the stories, do the activities, and try the recipes, and more Kids will love to help celebrate this sacred holiday. Festive Hanukkah reason-behind-the-recipe from Hanukkah Activities, Crafts, Recipes, and More : Latkes are potato pancakes fried in oil. The reason Latkes are such a popular Hanukkah recipe is because oil is a reminder of the miraculous oil that lasted for eight days when the Temple of Jerusalem was rededicated. Spinning dreidels, sizzling latkes, singing children at the synagogue, flickering candles, and the scent of sweet sufganiyot wafting throughout the house… these are some of my favorite sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of Hanukkah, the eight-day Jewish holiday in December. More than 2,000 years ago, a small band of Jewish rebels, armed with their faith in God, defeated a mighty army from a mighty empire. Hanukkah celebrates this important victory that led to the freedom and independence of the Jewish people. This book is packed with wonderful stories, interesting facts, great crafts, and lots more for you to enjoy during the Hanukkah season (or anytime you just WANT it to be Hanukkah ). I’ve included games, songs, puzzles, trivia, projects, recipes, and even a family Hanukkah newsletter Remember, when it comes to celebrating Hanukkah with your loved ones, a truly creative mind can always come up with endless ideas This special season is celebrated by children all around the world from Israel to America. So whether you are building a snowman or a sandcastle this December, I hope this activity book helps you learn more about this special holiday. Happy Hanukkah Carole Marsh & the Gallopade Gang |
