Hanukkah Gift Ideas for Children
Children will always appreciate gifts. That said, what’s a better way to introduce the young ones to this Jewish tradition than giving them Hanukkah-inspired presents? Here are a few Hanukkah gift ideas for kids to make your last-minute shopping a tad easier.
Dreidel
Dreidels are traditional Jewish toys that spin. Basically, they’re tops with a rich history. Like most children’s toys, dreidels help the young ones develop their motor skills while introducing them to the tradition at an early age.
This particular pack from Izzy Dizzy comes with 100 medium dreidels in different vibrant colors. They are BPA-free and non-toxic so you can turn the panic button off if you see your child putting one in their mouth. Each dreidel measures about 2” x 0.75” so its best not to give it to someone younger than 5 years.
Coloring Book
The chances of meeting a child who doesn’t like coloring books is as slim as Thanos winning against the superheroes in Avengers: Endgame. Before you accuse us of being spoilers, go ahead and get this lovely set of coloring books and markers from Aviv.
The Magical Velvet set includes two coloring books with eight Hanukkah scenes. Each book comes with six markers.
