I am going to tell you about Hanukkah or you can also spell it as Chanukkah.
Hanukkah was a minor holiday but then it eventually gained population.
It is celebrated for eight days this year it will start on December 2 all the way to the 9th. As you lite the candles there is a ancient song you sing with it it is called Hanerot Hallalu. Hanukkah reminds the jewish people of strife and conflict that their ancestors had faced in the passed. It takes 44 candles all together to last the 8 days and noght.
When they cook their food either fried or baked they put olive oil in it in all their foods. They put the olive oil in all the food because it reminds them of the oil that burned for 8 days in the holy temple. They even put it in theit dairy foods. They also play games and one of the popular one is spin the dreidel this game is the most played game. They exchange gifts for the gelt because it falls by christmas but traditionly your not really suppose to recieve gifts.
Well thats it for this one.
