Things we learned:
- The first day of Hanukkah and the first night of Hanukkah are not the same thing. This year the first night was 12/16, but we celebrated the first day 12/17.
- Proper dreidel spinning technique
- That Mommy likes latkes, but Riley is not a fan
- That there are several different verses in the dreidel song
- One of the acceptable spellings of Hanukkah
- The candle used to light the other candles is called the shamash
- You light the candle at night then blow it out and relight it the next night
- Hanukkah being way less commercialized than Christmas is part of what makes it fun!
- The first female rabbi was ordained in East Berlin in 1935, but female rabbis have only been ordained since 1972 in the US
Chag Urim Sameach!
