Hanukkah Scratch Art
Supplies:
Cardstock
Scissors
Light blue and dark blue oil pastels or wax crayons
Pointed stick
Print Star of David shape onto cardstock. Cut out. Apply a heavy layer of dark blue oil pastel or crayon to the entire surface, leaving no white spots. Apply a layer of light blue oil pastel or crayon on top of the dark blue. No dark blue should show through. Use a sharpened wooden stick to etch a Hanukkah message and holiday designs onto the star.

My Menorah
Print My Menorah reproducible. Have each child color in his or her own menorah and color, cut, and paste Shamash candle in the center of the menorah. Color, cut, and paste one additional candle each day of Hanukkah until all the Hanukkah lights are lit.
As a variation, print menorah reproducible only. Instead of cutting and pasting candles, have children stamp candles using a 5" x 3/4" inch strip of sponge dipped in paint. Children may stamp the flames as well or simply use crayons to "light" a candle each day.
