Chanukah is a Jewish celebration, also known as the Festival of
Lights. Chanukah starts at sundown today and lasts for eight days. It is
traditional to exchange gifts or gelt (Yiddish for money) in the form
of real coins or chocolate wrapped in gold foil, to play a game of put-and-take
with a four sided top called a dreidel, and to light candles each
night.
