Create colorful menorahs.
You only need popsicle sticks, markers, and paper. Color popsicle sticks using markers, then glue two popsicle stickers together horizontally, and two on top vertically. Glue nine sticks across, to be your menorah candle holders. Finally, cut flame shapes from paper and glue them to each stick.
Do something kind for a neighbor.
Hanukkah is about miracles and gift-giving. Donate your time to a neighbor and do an act of kindness. By doing something kind for others, you are bringing light into someone else’s life—symbolically honoring the miracle of light that is a special part of Hanukkah.
