Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, brings joy and sparkle during a dark time of the year. Beginning on the 25th of the Jewish month of Kislev, which falls in November or December in the Roman calendar, 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 for eight nights on a hanukkiah or menorah.
We have partnered with our friends at PJ Library Bay Area to bring you everything you need to get ready for the Festival of Lights including recipes, book lists, gift ideas, activities, child-friendly versions of the Hanukkah story and much more.
Here are a few favorites of ours
