  • Decorative Paper Dreidels

    A dreidel is a four-sided spinning top used during a traditional Hanukkah game played in Jewish homes around the world. Every year, friends and family gather around to spin the dreidel, collect chocolate coins, sing songs, and celebrate a variety of Hanukkah traditions. We invite you to create your own four-sided decorative paper dreidel to honor the holiday traditions and memories you hold dear.

    Learn how to make your own.

  • Treasure Hunt Hanukkiah

    Create your own symbolic hanukkiah (Hanukkah lamp) made of items found in your home or neighborhood! As you assemble your Hanukkah lamp, remember that even the smallest flame can give light to many. Ask yourself, how can I spread hope and light to the world?
