Product Description
Making Hanukkah candles is a perfect way to introduce or strengthen the family holiday tradition. This addition to our popular line of children's interactive crafting and educational kits comes complete with enough beeswax sheets and wicks to create 44 candles for the eight nights of Hanukkah, plus glitter to decorate the candles, and a gorgeous box to hold them. The 48page book inside contains a history of Hanukkah, directions for making and lighting the candles, prayers in Hebrew and English, and recipes, songs, and crafts to celebrate the Festival of Lights.

Reader ReviewsThe book had interesting information but the wax was brittle and there was not nearly enough wick material to make 44 candles my children almost 5 and 3 were incredibly disappointed as was I - be sure to buy candles from elsewhere because these are miserable!
