Don’t Forget (Chanukah Freebies!)

GZ was in the mood for schoolie while Naomi was working today, and I was racking my brain when I remembered this “Berenstain Bears” Menorah/Dreidel cutting and pasting activity I did with them last year. It’s been so long that neither of them actually remembered doing it at ALL.

You can find this and a few more Chanukah activities at this page.

I don’t remember why I made this Berenstain Bears when I don’t like them or the books at ALL. I think I just wanted a family where they would instantly recognize the characters and their relative sizes/ages. There are a few ways you can use this sheet. For older kids, you can just do it with drawing lines from each family member to his/her respective menorah and dreidel.

Anyway, I folded a piece of construction paper into fourths to give one distinct area for each family member, and then let GZ have a blast (really, truly, he was humming and happy and asked to do it AGAIN when he was finished). (I said no; maybe I’ll print him another one tomorrow if we have time.) This was nice for everybody because it kept him entirely busy with minimal intervention from me, which meant I could give most of my attention to Naomi’s work.

Enjoy!

I bought Morah, Morah, Teach Me Torah just before Shavuos (literally, minutes before the bookstore closed) and have been enjoying it weekly ever since. I don’t look at it before I write my parsha overviews , but I do read it when I’m planning what sorts of things to do with my kids in connection with the parsha. It’s also something I can read with them if I choose. There are so many reasons I like this book! Despite the very cute picture on the cover, it’s not just for teeny-weeny kids. It features simple songs (if you know basic tunes to kids’ songs in English, like Mary Had a Little Lamb , or The Ants Come Marching , you can sing these songs!), parsha summarie...
