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.

Picture Frames For Kids to Make

Grandma Lizzies House Picture Frame Megan
This is a great gift for your child to give someone special or a way to preserve a memory. Just recycle an old frame with paint and cute designs. You can also us tongue depressors to form a frame. Just paint, glue together and add a message or design. Use a ribbon or string for hanging. These frames are easy and fun and I know any grandparent or parent would be thrilled to receive one as a gift.
