Hanukkah is a special time of year, and coloring Hanukkah-themed pages is a great way to get into the spirit! A Hanukkah Coloring Page can provide hours of fun for kids alone or with family. The page helps tell the Hanukkah story in an engaging visual way, as kids put down their crayons and markers to provide their own interpretation of holiday symbols like Hanukiahs, dreidels, and bright burning flames. Hanukkah Coloring Pages help children learn about Hanukkah through creative play, so let them explore and express their unique interpretations this season!
FUN FACTS!
Hanukkah is a Jewish holiday that celebrates the rededication of a previously desecrated temple in Israel. At Hanukkah, we light candles, play dreidel and give gifts. It’s an incredible holiday full of fun and traditions! Hanukkah tradition involves lighting a Hanukiah with eight candle holders each night for eight nights to commemorate the menorah burning for eight days instead of one. The traditional Hanukkah game, dreidel (or sevivonim), is played with a spinning top-like object inscribed with Hebrew letters that represent the phrase “A great miracle happened there.” Finally, giving Hanukkah gelt (money or chocolate coins) is an excellent way to keep up with the Hanukah tradition. How will you celebrate Hanukkah this year?
