Happy Hannukah!
For all of our families who started celebrating last night – we wish you a Happy Hannukah!
Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, is celebrated by Jewish people around the world and brings joy and sparkle during a dark time of the year. Last night was the beginning of 8 nights of celebration, Hanukkah is a time to eat delicious latkes (potato pancakes), play dreidel (a traditional game featuring a spinning top), enjoy gathering with family and friends — and, of course, light Hanukkah candles. The candleholder called a menorah, holds nine candles — one for each of the eight nights of Hanukkah, plus the shammash, or “helper,” which is used to light the other candles (the number of which increases each night of the holiday). Many families exchange gifts during Hanukkah, too.
If you celebrate a special day that we have not mentioned, let us know and we would love to share the information with our community!
