Hanukkah
Game 1
“The Dreidel Game” Hanukkah Party Game: This classic Hanukkah party game is best played with a small group of children – less than 6 is ideal. All that’s required for the game is a dreidel, 20 pennies for each player, and a small pot or bowl. The players gather around, and choose a player to spin the dreidel first. Depending on which letter (Nun, Gimel, Hey or Shin) is facing up when the dreidel stops, the player must either: do nothing (Nun), take everything in the pot (Gimel), take half the pot (Hey) or put a penny in the pot (Shin). Deciding a winner can be done in a couple of ways. For a short game, players can count their pennies after they’ve had 5 or 10 spins each. For a longer game, players can keep playing until one player reaches a certain level, for example 50 pennies.
