Dreidel Game
Winter
Children are given a special toy called a dreidel to play with during the long winter nights of Hanukkah. The dreidel is a four-sided top. Each of the 4 sides has a Hebrew letter inscribed on it. The letters translate to our N, G, H and S and stand for “Nes Gadol Haya Sham” which means “A great miracle happened there,” referring to the oil that burned for 8 nights at the Temple in Jerusalem so many eons ago.
