Hanukkah An 8 day Jewish festival.

Our objectives To know some key facts about a Jewish festival. To understand that the Jews believe God performed miracles. To understand that light is representing the presence of God.

What do we celebrate? Christmas Easter Birthdays

What is Hanukkah celebrating? An eight-day festival celebrating a time in history when the Jews won a battle against the Greeks to practise their religion freely.

Why does it last for 8 days? To celebrate, an oil lamp was lit in the temple. There was only enough oil to burn for one day - but miraculously it burned for eight days. This is why the Hanukkah festival lasts for eight days and why light is the main item in the celebration. How long do our celebrations last? What was the miracle?

What is a Hanukkiah? They light a candle each night on a special candle holder called a Hanukkiah or Menorah.

Why do the Jews use light to celebrate? They believe the light shows that God is with them, like when the light lasted for 8 days in history.

When is Hanukkah? December Do the families do anything special at Hanukkah? Children play with a spinning top called a dreidel. Families eat special potato cakes called latkes and other oily food to remind them of the importance of the oil lamp. Presents are also given at this time.
