You will need to save the cardboard tubes from paper towels, or toliet paper.
Once you have your tubes, cut 1/2 inch off of 8 of the tubes. Either cover the 9 tubes with construction paper, or color with markers. Feel free to decorate tubes with glitter and markers, you can also draw a Star of David on the center tube. Try to use blues and silver to decorate the tubes.
Now,place the taller tube in the middle and 4 shorter ones on each side. Tape together and glue to the long piece of cardboard. Tear apart the tissue paper and insert various colors into the top of each tube to represent the flame of a candle.
EDIBLE DREIDEL
Begin by spreading a little bit of peanut butter on the top of one marshmallow and the flat part of one Hershey's Kiss. Next, take one pretzel stick and push it through the marshmallow continue pushing the pretzel through the flat part of the Hershey's Kiss. Once you have pushed the pretzel through both the marshmallow and the pretzel, you have an edible dreidel!
MORE FUN:
Spread soft cream cheese on bread. Arrange 8 pretzel sticks in a row for candles.
Use carrot stick for shamash. Use a raisin for each flame.While placing "flame" on candles, say this rhyme:
One light, two lights, three lights, and four. Five lights, six lights, and three more; Twinkle, twinkle, nine pretty lights, In a menorah shining bright!
