Or is it Chanukah? Or Hanukkah? Sometimes getting the proper spelling of a Hebrew word transliterated into English gets tricky, especially when far more than a trio of options prove technically correct. Hanukkah is the most common spelling, so that’s what we’re going with! Hanukkah in lockdown Chances are, you’re spending more time at home this year than ever before. And while being distant from loved ones, and not being able to attend Hanukkah parties or public lightings of menorahs may not be quite the way you would’ve hoped to spend Hanukkah this year, there are some upsides – one being that it’s a perfect opportunity to make your home a warm, cosy, joy-filled place to celebrate Hanukkah! Read on for loads of easy ideas and they’re for you whether you’re a Hanukkah regular, or you’ve never ever done this before, I want you to celebrate it beautifully and meaningfully. HANUKKAH TABLE RUNNER: buy it here 3 How do I feel part of a community during the pandemic? Hanukkah will be different this year, with communities unable to get together in the way they’ve done so for thousands of years, and Hanukkah parties out of the agenda, but don’t worry - I’VE GOT YOU COVERED! I’m hosting a free ‘8 Days of Hanukkah’ Festival inside a special pop- up Facebook group to bring us all together (complete with a latke cook- a-long, recipes, fun dreidel games, music playlists, table decor, and also more symbolic themes of giving, dedication and finding light in dark times).

  • Hanukkah Trike by Michelle Edwards
    Book-Based Family Program The Hanukkah Trike By Michelle Edwards Program Focus Age group: Ages 2-5 Time frame: 45-60 minutes Central value: Hanukkah Theme Nights Synopsis The Hanukkah Trike is a sweet, simple story which is well-suited for children ages- 2-5. Through its bright illustrations and straight-forward text, the book teaches about several customs and traditions of Hanukkah (making latkes, playing dreidel, lighting the menorah). Best of all, the book contains a simple, developmentally-appropriate retelling of the Hanukkah story. Not only does the book provide excellent descriptions of Hanukkah rituals, but it also contains a plot with which young children can easily identify. Young Gabi Greenberg, the heroine of the book, loves the trike which she is given on the first night of Hanukah. When Gabi falls on her first attempt to ride the bike, she becomes quite frightened, and momentarily considers abandoning her quest to master bike riding. With her mother’s help, Gabi recalls the courage and persistence of the Maccabees, and decides to try again. Soon she is “speeding down the sidewalk”, filled with the bravery and joy of the Maccabees.” Goals • Help parents discover more meaningful, values-based methods of celebrating Hanukkah • Allow parents and children to decide upon several theme nights which they would like to try observing in their home Submitted by Vivian Newman – [email protected] "PJ Library" and "PJ Library logo" are registered trademarks of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation.

  • CHRISTMAS MICHELLE NESTOR Christmas Is a Time of Celebration and Remembrance
    Raritan High School’sRARITAN Official Newspaper REVIEW BY: KRISTIN HUNGERFORD AND CHRISTMAS MICHELLE NESTOR Christmas is a time of celebration and remembrance. It is a holiday in which the catholic community praises Jesus’ birth. The Three Wise Men followed the brightest star in the sky, the North Star, to bring them to Jesus’ manger. Once the Wise Men arrived, they presented Jesus with gold, frankincense, and myrrh; which is the reason we receive presents on Christmas day. In the fourth century, St. Nicholas was a was very wealthy and generous bishop. He had a reputation for helping the unfortunate and giving presents to people in need. St. Nicholas, better known as Santa Claus, was created because of him. Originally, Santa Claus was known as Kris Kringle in the United States. In other areas of the world, he began to be referred to as “The Father of Christmas”. The Dutch name for this was “Sinterklaas” and people in the United States translated that as Santa Claus. To get into the Christmas spirit, many people go door to door singing Christmas HANUKKAH Carols. Christmas caroling was a tradition that started in Europe and was passed BY: LAURA TUCKER AND NOELLE ZWEIDINGER down from generation to generation. Legend has it that in the seventh century, a Hanukkah, also spelled Chanukah, is a Jewish holiday that lasts for eight days. The holiday is in monk from Crediton, Devonshire, used a Fir remembrance of a temple that was released from Greek control which was under the region tree for the triangular shape to describe the of Antiochus IV, a descendant of Alexander the great.

We are so grateful to have an incredible group of volunteers that donate their time and passion for film to our ever-growing Cherry Hill Volvo Cars Jewish Film Festival. Our committee is comprised of 51 unique individuals who all share a love of Jewish film. We spend countless hours screening films that span genres and languages, and they are dedicated to helping us choose the best possible films for this incredible week. We are very proud of the 21 films that we have chosen to highlight in our 12th Annual Cherry Hill Volvo Cars Jewish Film Festival. They originate from seven different countries, many of which have won awards from their respective countries and are fan favorites from other Jewish Film Festivals around the world. We are also thrilled to include two student-created films with local roots;Better Together “Names, Not Numbers”© from the students at the Kellman Brown Academy, and Kaddish by JCC member Antony Post. We are fortunate that several guest speakers will be joining us to provide additional insight into the films. They include writers, directors, producers, film stars, and film critics. You will get a chance to meet Chef Ina Pinkney from Breakfast at Ina’s, founder and producer Enosh Cassel from My Hero Brother, and Roz Holberg, a Hadassah Board member who will provide insight into Wounded Land. Of course, a festival like ours can only thrive with community support. We are fortunate to live in a community that enjoys the arts and passionately supports Jewish culture.
