The Jerusalem Connection Report has a popular section JUST FOR KIDS to teach all things about the Biblical feasts and festivals! This site is a great resource to learn everything about Jewish celebrations. This year we have just released a special section for Hanukkah. In 2011, Hanukkah begins on December 20th and lasts until December 28th.
Hanukkah for Kids is a great resource to learn about the Maccabees, Antiochus (boo!), and the Temple. The Hanukkah story is a wonderful narrative of good guys versus bad guys. Spoiler alert: The underdog wins despite all odds!
Get coloring pages, watch videos, play games, download donut recipes, and read up on the Holiday. The page was built with kids in mind but adults always say its a great learning tool for them too!
We are now working on an original series of coloring pages for our For Kids section. Be sure to check out the first page in the series:
