Now that I have a child it is more important to me to celebrate the holidays. Alexi is Jewish and my family celebrates Christmas. Therefore I want Wyatt to know a little bit about the traditions of both cultures. I found this age appropriate book by Karen Katz called Where Is Baby's Dreidel that teaches kids about some of the Hanukkah customs and games. I'll give it to him on Friday after we light the first candle.
