- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ต.ค. 2024
- It’s not Hanukkah without a game of dreidel. It is so much fun to play and it’s an easy game to teach to others. It’s not a Chanukah party with out someone chanting “gimmel, gimmel”. So get your latkes cooking, light your menorah, find some gelt, and let’s play.
It’s time for an amazing Hanukkah collaboration with some other great Jewish moms. Check out all of their videos here:

Loved learning about the game. My mother typically chooses a different game each year for our family to play at Christmas, and this year we are going to play the Dreidel game. My mother also bought the gold choco coins. Personally, I'd rather play with $5.00 bills, HA, but the matriarch is the big boss at Christmas. Go figure? A predominantly Catholic family playing the Dreidel game on Christmas day. I can think of no better way to share and understand a simple and fun Jewish cultural norm.
Low key really happy I found this page cause I’m Jewish and I want to learn more but I never knew where to start and this is helping
My son came home from school with a gold chocolate coin. His teacher taught the kids this game. I thought that was so cool 💛
Im happy to hear that the kids are doing extracultural things in other countries.
You’re so delightful and warm! I’m learning about Hanukkah and dreidels for a project, and this was really helpful. Thanks! 😊
I remember one of my high school teachers teaching us about Hanukkah and even took us food and I think it’s pretty awesome so now that you have kids I’m teaching them about this holiday because I want them to respect all kids that are from different religions and they loved it I found your videos that have help me a lot thank you!
Grew up catholic, identity now as Agnostic, and I still love to learn about other beliefs, religions, and traditions.
I’m from Cincinnati OH and afaik Reform Judaism began here. Always love learning more
Shalom thank you so much for this video. This my 1st year celebrating Hanukkah. Your instructions are so simply and understanding.
Don’t listen to the troll, we love you! Hanukkah sameach my friend
@@12yearssober literally not true, but whatever. I was born into it, I know multiple converts, every Rabbi you ask that's not a nutjob can tell you there's no difference between converts and people born to Jewish mothers. Plus, what about patrilineal Jews, who Reform and Reconstructionist Judaism recognize as Jewish without needing to convert? You're wildly misinformed and putting somebody down for no reason.
I hope you enjoy this Channukah! Also don’t listen to the other comment, we all accept you! Chag Sameach!
Thank you Everyone, I have enjoyed Hanukkah so much. And I’m learning so much. Im seen everything with happiness and ignoring bad comments
Epstein didn't kill himself
I'm from New York I'm not jewish I'm christian but my neighborhood was half christian half jewish and was very diverse and in elementary school in 4th grade we learned about hanukkah and playing dreidel, and I thought it was so cool especially with the gold coins and it looked like fun
im from new york and im half christian and half jewish :O (technically ur either jewish or not jewish theres no half jewish unless u mean by parents in that case my dads jewish and my mom's catholic.. but since my mom isnt jewish and being jewish is run by the mother im considered not jewish, but my dad is since his mom aka my grandma is jewish)
This is what my brother showed me when I was little (we are a Jewish family) I LOVED THIS GAME 🥰❤️❤️❤️🧡🧡🧡💛💛💛💚💚💚💙💙💚💜💜💜💖💖💖💖💜💜💜🖤🖤🖤🤍🤍🤍 all the hearts cause I loved this game!
I love your Hanukkah Moose. So cute. Thank you for your videos. I have been sharing them this week.
Thank you! I've never played Dreidel before, but I'm teaching my 2nd grade music class how to play as we learn about Hanukkah! Thank you for this tutorial!
Amazing!!! There are printable instructions on my website too. Thank you for including Hanukkah in your lessons.
I grew up in Baltimore Maryland and I had a lot of Jewish friends and I remember when Hanukkah come around I would go up their house and seemed like to me we had matzah and lentil soup and it was good but it was explained to me it was part of their religious part of Hanukkah but with that said we used to play with the dreidel but I had a hard time understanding what the symbols meant and I never really learned until you taught me today and now I live in the mountains of Virginia and pretty much a hillbilly but I can't help but think back to those days when I had so much fun playing with them and at Hanukkah it was just fun for a city boy.
Thank you for teaching me how to what the symbols are
the symbols are.
I'm going online I'm going to buy me a dreidel I will draw a picture of the symbols and I will get my grandchildren together and we are going to play with the dreidel and sing the dreidel song and I will tell him the story when I was a child and I'm sure they will enjoy it and it's a funny thing we have a plan outside in a pot and it has a lot of those flat marbles on the top and I think we are going to go out there and pick a lot of amount but I hope grandma don't find out because she ain't going to like it but we going to have those and we're going to play and we're going to have fun!
Oh yeah, pray you have a Happy Sabbath this weekend!
Love learning about different cultures and religions. This was incredibly interesting, fun and helpful. Thanks!!
Me too!
Our first time to play! Thanks for the video! Shalom! ♥️
Loved this! In the late 70s early 80s I was fortunate enough to be in an elementary school that had a very diverse population and formed me into who I am today. My English teacher taught us about many things in Jewish culture including dreidel, the Hora, and various celebrations. Thank you Mrs Voos for giving me such a rich education that I am carrying into the second half-century of my life!
A couple of young men were handing out dreidels near my work. Thought it was nice so I thought I learn more about it. Thanks for the info.
Thank you for this! Happy Hanukkah 2022, Day 1, from someone who’s a dreidel spinner. Happening tonight at your sunset and mine. 🎉
This video was filled with such great information and taught me a lot. Thank you.
I will be talking about your videos on my podcast. thanks
Thank you so much for this video. I am not even Jewish but this game looked like so much fun so I had to try it. It is so much fun! Thank you! 😁
Im here to know more Classic and Modern Jewish stuff...
Dreidel was like a Basic "Gain and Give" in my initial understanding
Subbed!!! Jewish Mom
Using a dreidel as a game mechanic in other games could also be really interesting replacing dye and the likes! Thank you for the informational video
Those flat marbles are beautiful and very popular with the preschool set for making hanukiyot or pretend ones with play doh these days. Great suggestions, Marti!
For older kids or grown ups, I love using real coins for more high stakes play time. I even get a roll of dollar coins that we play with again and again! You could also use leftover foreign currency.
Ooh! Now I’m very in the mood! Great video!
Thank you. I hope it's okay to borrow this tradition to play with my kids when we celebrate Christmas! 😬
Hosting 5 non-jewish friends this year, thanks for the refresher course!
My moms side of the family on her dads side is all Jewish ethnically and religiously. But my grandma raised her Christian so I had no idea I was ethnically Jewish until adulthood. I was never taught anything about the religion either which is sad bc without Judaism I couldn’t even be Christian. My grandpa always went to synagogue on high holy days but I just thought it was something peculiar to him. My great grandparents immigrated from Russia and only spoke Yiddish. But my grandpa wanted to forget it all and therefore never talked about it. So I grew up knowing nothing about my Jewish roots 😢 After watching this video my 4 kids are having so much fun playing the dreidel game ❤ Thank you!
This is very informative; Good description 👍🏻
That sounds like fun, my boyfriend is Jewish and Hanukkah is coming up this is the first time I'm celebrating and giving him gifts to him and stuff so, this was really interesting
Awesome video! Thanks every Jewish mom!!
I played Dreidel before but I spend it so hard and so ridiculous It flew up and hit me in the eye
Yikes! Should I add “wear goggles” to the instructions?
I had a Jewish friend who was celebrating Hanukkah and he show me how to play it
Haha reminds me of the Dreidel song! That is so fitting! Shalom!
as a little reminder:
nun: do nothing
gimel: get the whole pot (teplenish after)
hay: get half the pot (if 1 left, add more)
shin: put a tolen in
I have never played dreidel before but you are so good at teaching and instructing that anybody can learn quickly by you on how to play a game of dreidel. Hanukkah begins in less that a week, this Sunday at sundown. I do have one question? Are you going to post content related to Hanukkah foods/cooking this year? You are an awesome cook and I am really looking forward to that type of content. Thank you for posting this great video!
Marti has some great Hanukkah food videos from past years. Definitely look back to last December for early inspiration! Happy Hanukkah!
@@LittleKosherLunch Thank you so much for your reply. I will definitely check out Marti's Hanukkah food videos when I have the chance. Happy Hanukkah to you as well and many blessings!
I love 😍 the little blue animal behind you.
Great video sis! Now for the deepest sod Midrashic question of all sages.... when rolling a ה on an odd number of gelt do you take the greater or lesser half??? Lol
In our house you take the great half. That’s a very interesting question though.
In my house you take the lesser half, it presents an opportunity to teach (and serves as a reminder of) the mitzvah as stated in Vayikra (Leviticus) 23:22 (our obligation or duty if you prefer)
i played dreidel last year in my r.e class and it was soo fun!
I’m guessing you go to Emanuel school
@@Jeremy-tp1yy nope, i go to a different school in wales ahah
@@aimeewallerr ok
For some reason, I remember playing this in elementary school. I went to public school though. I don’t think my teachers were Jewish. I guess they were all for teaching kids about other cultures, which is pretty cool.
That Moose is awesome.
The exact same night on Chanukah! The third night!!!
Thank you👍🕊
Shalom from lithuania :)
Sounds very fun!
Lol for the longest like kindergarten through 5 grade i thought i was Jewish because all my teachers happened to be Jewish so we learned about hanukkah and menorah and the Dreidel is also used in Latin America
Now I just need to find where I can buy a driedel ! thanks for the info !
So basically the game teaches you how to gamble damm that’s dope
its hunkkah soon thats my favrit halday and thats how i play
You are adorable, thank you for this information!
You are so welcome!
It sounds like a fun game!
It sure is!
Shalom! New sub! Can you make a video on Hanukkah activities ideas for the little ones? Blessings❤️
Nun
Gimel
Hey
Shin
thank you
can we talk about how cute that stuffy is in the back
That’s the Mitzvah Moose. You can light up the candles on its antlers.
Thank you. G-d bless you.
Mexicans have a similar game called toma todo. Take 1, put 1in, take 2, put 2 in, take it all, everyone puts in. 6 sides. Shalom amigos.
So interesting. I’ll have to look it up.
So cool
THANKS!!

Can non Jews play dradel sounds fun, I’m catholic but I respect all religions, I think they Jewish culture is amazing I have so much respect for them, I would love to know how the Jews can keep 613 laws or sorry if I have it wrong but how do they do it, I mean we only &o by 10 commandments they all must be so so hard to keep all these rules from falling apart, we know how hard for people these days to keep rules, so I’d love to know how they do it there amazing.
Yes, you can play dreidel. Though it’s better when played with Jewish friends. If you take a look at the 613 mitzvot, you’ll see that most are pretty manageable and many don’t apply to the current day.
What a lovely, adorable jewish lady.
Thanks ☺️
I am not Jewish. I am Christian. But I work in a children summer camp where there are quite a few Jewish children, as we served food, we had to be careful with the food we provided them. My cousin has a friend colleague who was Jewish and she wasn’t able to touch pork or shell fish and touch dairy produce and beef together or eggs and chicken together.
Yep, Alrighty
Me and my besties started playing with those and then we summoned the chicken nugget and put them in our pocket and then we buried them outside 😍
How would you feel about Dreidel being used as a game among non-Jews throughout the year; my family are not Jewish but I think they will appreciate this game when socializing with friends?
It’s such an interesting question. The letters in the dreidel hold religious meaning, so it would feel better to me if you used a different top or changed the symbols.
@@EverydayJewishMom Understood.
Thank you for the work you've put into your channel I'm really enjoying the videos.
I'm Christian (my religion, not my name). I use poker chips instead of chocolate, so I don't end up eating the game.
What if you get half and there is only 1 or 3 marbles
For odd numbers we let the person take the greater amount. If there’s 1 … I guess they’d just take that one and then everyone would replenish the pot.
So on our instructions it says to put a coin in the pot after every round. What is considered a round? Is it after each individual persons turn or after everyone has gone?
Probably after everyone has gone. They way we play is that everyone puts one in, only if it's empty or you can even continue filling the pot from an outside source to make the game last longer. Everyone does it differently.
@@EverydayJewishMom our games last pretty long already lol. We think our dice are loaded haha

This pooped up after I already watched a tutorial on a dreidel 😆
My wood shop can make those.
How do you make a dreidel?
By the way I couldn't open your website there seems to be an error
Hi, I'm not Jewish. Hindu actually. I'd love to play for fun but just wanted to ask if it is cultural appropriation. Just to air on the safe side. Do let me know!
You absolutely can play dreidel. Lighting candles and saying blessings are the religious practices that we ask people not to do.
Let’s go today I sing the drain of socks with me my teacher and my friends we sing trade or trade a dreidel I made it out of clay and win a trailer ready or do you know how to play and then we played to trade a game I got I lost one of my friends serenity she’s one of my best friends and one of my other friend name Amelia one too but can you play tomorrow because every day we chat we don’t talk I said sometimes you win sometimes you don’t win
