[quote=Anonymous]I don't know . . . Hanukkah is fun but it has no religious significance. It seems like a weird one to focus on if you want to connect to Judaism. That's a very Christian-centric way of looking at things. Next year, try acknowledging Rosh Hashanah with some yummy apple and honey cake and talk about how the Jewish calendar is different than the Gregorian... or a Passover seder, plenty of Jewish families are very happy to host you! In fact, that is part of Passover, hosting "strangers." Even Sukkoth or Purim have more significance and can be fun for kids. You can make a Sukkah in the backyard, have a meal there. Light the lights, don't light the lights. But don't hang your kid's connection to their Jewish identity on Hanukkah.[/quote]
