Hanukkah or Chanukah

Each December, in my school class we talk about many celebrations. When we learn about Hanukkah we always play the dreidel game with unshelled peanuts. The kids love it. Get Free Dreidel Pattern & Game Directions.
We also make potato latkes. I’ve included a recipe that I have used so you can try it with your children or grandchildren. This is a simplified recipe.
