Interactive Yarn Wrapped Menorah
Introduce young students to the correct placement of Chanukah candles in the menorah and the lighting order for each night with this Interactive Yarn-Wrapped Menorah project. Students can safely practice lighting their menorah using painted wood blocks to represent flames. All components of the menorah are attached with Velcro dots and can be removed and repositioned to review and reinforce the learning. This project also includes a tactile learning component through the manipulation of yarn and finger paint.
