SPIN THE DREIDEL
           Kids love to play Dreidel during the Jewish                                self-centered
           holiday of Hanukkah. This game can be
           played with family or friends, and all you                                 Attitude
           need is a dreidel and some objects to use                              Mira Meefirst:
           as tokens!
                                                                                  I don’t understand why I need to
           Each player receives 10-15 tokens (can be coins,                       go to church every single Sunday.
           paper clips, or even chocolate chips) and places                       I would rather sleep in and watch
           one token in the middle to start the game.
                                                                                  TV. That’s what most of my
           Take turns spinning the four-sided dreidel.                            friends do!
           Whatever side faces up once the player spins is
           what he must do with his tokens.
           “Hey” means the player gets half of what’s in
           the center. “Gimel” allows the player to take
           everything.                                                                OR
                                                                     Outreach Otto:
           If a player lands a “Nun,” he does nothing, and if a
           “Shin” symbol is spun, the player adds one of his         Mira, many people in
           pieces to the middle.                                     other countries aren’t

            (Hey) ﬣ                                                  allowed to go to church,
                                                                     so it’s a privilege for us
           (Gimel) גּ                                                 to able to freely worship

           (Nun) נּ                                                   and learn about God.
                                                                     Going to church shows

                                                                     God that we love him
           If a player runs out of tokens, he is out. Keep on        and want to know him
           playing until there is only one player left with          more! Church is a very
           tokens. That person wins the game!                        special place.
