Joyfilled Hanukkah December 19-26

We are very blessed to live in a city that is diverse and welcoming. In the community of Toronto where we are, called The Beaches, there is a lovely Mennorah for everyone to appreciate. 


 We have a sweet Happy Hanukkah colouring and vocabulary sheet we revisit each year from. You can find similar creations from this talented woman: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Playfully-Primary/Category/HOLIDAY-Hanukkah-491097


We also had a great find at our local Canadian Tire, a menorrah bag. It is so lovely and around 2.00CDN. 

Barron and I also found the best Driedel game at Canadian Tire as well. We got two. We played it based on instructions from this video by Marshmellow and Wengie: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GaOuEpeEOpQ 



Our first time playing Bear spun and got Gimel: Take all the tokens. I got Nun: Do Nothing. Bear and I spun again (he is blue and I am green) and we got the same and Bear won yet again. We didn't have any gelt coins. The other two spins could have been Shin which requires you to put 2 tokens in the middle and Hay means take half the tokens. This game is the best and it teaches you a skill to spin.

This etsy shop theprekmama is wonderful for less than 2.00CDN and you can have a dridel three page product: https://www.etsy.com/dk-en/listing/1339802318/hanukkah-dreidel-game-hanukkah-preschool?click_key=8e1e2cd86eb65676a25fc1d2915a48d69211244a%3A1339802318&click_sum=95e65405&ref=shop_home_active_1&pro=1&sts=1



We got a few swedts to enjoy on this festive day as close to what is traditionally eaten since we cannot cook at our current place:



and Canada Post has made a lovely stamp this year:
