Gan Aleph's First Day of Chanukah!


What a better way to start off Chanukah than with some dancing and performing Miztvot! We began the morning with a celebration in the gym...singing songs and dancing with excitement.
We then got ready to go on our big trip to the Jewish Home at Rivervale Nursing Home!
Gan Aleph and Gan Gimmel sang songs, danced like a candle, got dizzy like a dreidel and enjoyed the claps and laughter from the residents of the nursing home. We lit the Chanukiya together and presented the residents with our own hand made menorah and drip mat. The
children walked around shaking their hands and saying "Happy Chanukah!" What an amazing way to begin our Chanukah together!
