The Menorah, Dreidels & Hanukkah Traditions with Ollie and Friends

Celebrate Hanukkah with Ollie & Friends! Children will explore glowing candles, spinning dreidels, and the beauty of family traditions through movement, imagination, and storytelling.

Little listeners begin with a cheerful ABC warm-up before learning all about the menorah and pretending to light each candle — including the shamash. They’ll sway like flickering flames, stretch tall like candles, spin like dreidels, and sing playful Hanukkah songs that fill the room with warmth and fun.

The episode ends with a heartwarming story, “Ollie’s Hanukkah Lights,” where Aunt Jamie calls Ollie downstairs to light the menorah and his friend Luca arrives to celebrate. Together, they spin dreidels, eat warm latkes, and share what they’re grateful for — reminding little ones that Hanukkah is all about light, love, and meaningful traditions passed down through family.

This episode is perfect for bedtime, classroom celebrations, winter mornings, or anytime your little one wants to learn about Hanukkah in a gentle, engaging way.

Let’s shine bright together — Happy Hanukkah! ✨
