How Do You Create A Cute Hanukah Menorah?
Want a cute craft to do with your 4-6 year old in preparation for Hanukah? Follow these easy instructions and watch your child’s face glow as he lights his very own TRAIN menorah! Paint each piece of wood according to your child’s taste. Allow to dry completely. Drill guiding holes for the hooks and eyes on each end of one four inch piece, each end of one three inch piece, on one end of the second four inch piece, and one end of the second three inch piece. Screw in hooks and eyes. Put down the metallic tape in the center of each piece from one end to the other. (This will ensure that the candles do not burn the Menorah down). Glue wooden cube on to the left edge of one three inch wooden piece. This will be the engine (the front car) of the menorah train. Glue three nuts on each four inch piece of wood, on the metallic tape, evenly spaced. Glue two nuts on the plain three inch piece of wood. On the engine, glue two nuts one on top of the other in front of the wooden cube. Allow to dry.
