This is a great addition to the Hanukkah crafts<\/a> on the site.<\/p>\n Hanukkah is the festival of the lights. It is a small Jewish holiday that lasts eight nights of lighting candles. It commemorates the rededication of the temple after the Syrians desecrated it.<\/p>\n It has fun activities with lighting the candles on the menorah, dreidels, chocolate coins, and latkes to name a few parts of Hannukah.<\/p>\n This menorah craft is a great way to make all 8 candles and the shamash and have kids learn about why we celebrate the 8 night of Hanukkah.<\/p>\n We have included links to some of the products and resources we have used with this activity. If you purchase via the links we may earn a small commission<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n We love reading the book Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins<\/a>. It has always been a favorite for us. And is a great one for working on the different night and menorah.<\/p>\n You will see all the steps below that we used to make the Paper Roll Menorah.<\/p>\n This is how we set up the paints on the paper plate. You can start with a little and add more as you do. And yes, you can do colors other than blue for the candles. You could let kids pick their own colors.<\/p>\n You start by making a line with the paper rolls across the paper. You want to leave space at the bottom to make the base. This is the place that will hold the candles.<\/p>\n Then you add on with making the bottom of the menorah by making the standing part of the Menorah.<\/p>\n And you also want to make sure you have an area for the shamash candle as well. You want to try and get it in the center.<\/p>\n Now you more on to making candles.<\/p>\n You start with getting your spacing on the candles. You want to make sure you have enough space for four candles on each side. It is suggested to start on the outside and work your way in. There is very little space between candles.<\/p>\n We went from one side to the other and did run into issues doing it that way. So work on doing candles from the outside in.<\/p>\n Then you start the candle for the shamash as well.<\/p>\n We stamped three times for each candle. You want to ensure that the shamash is taller than the other candles.<\/p>\n We used a flattened paper roll to make the flame on the candle. You can see how neat one stamp makes it look like a candle with a flame.<\/p>\nWhat is Hanukkah?<\/h2>\n
