Hanukkah Resources for Kids

Two years ago, my son received a precious gift from a Jewish pen-pal. 

It was a package with two dreidels (a small four-sided spinning top with a Hebrew letter on each side), chocolate coins with the Hanukkah menorah engraved on it, erasers, a letter and other fun goodies.  

To this day, we still have the contents of the gift bag (except for the chocolates 😊 that are long gone!). We used the contents to learn more about the Hanukkah Jewish festival an eight-day celebration, and I also researched some helpful links, too.  

Today, I'm excited to share with you our favorite Hanukkah resources for kids. 

Kwanzaa Winter Holiday Celebration

I love teaching our child about the different Winter holidays, and last year I hosted in our home a Cultural Playdate: "Celebrating 中國新年 (Chinese New Year)." This year I hosted a one-day Kwanzaa Winter Holiday camp for ten of my son's friends 5 years and under. The fun part about this camp that it was bilingual! I invited little one's new Spanish speaking friends so I was translating English to Spanish; and then Spanish to English for the other children.
