Last year during Hanukkah Joshua was 3 months old. Therefore, he was a little young to really enjoy the holiday. At 15 months, Joshua is still pretty young, but he is able to interact a little more. On the first night of Hanukkah, Joshua got a picture board book on Hanukkah. Each page discussed a different night. So, we read 1 page each night that corresponded with the night of Hanukkah. After lighting the candles each night, we gave Joshua a gift. The gifts ranged from books to stuffed animals to toys. One night, we even gave him a dreidel, and Keith and I ate the candy inside. Joshua really enjoyed opening the gifts. Yet, we think he enjoyed playing with the wrapping paper more than the gifts. Next year, it will probably be different and he will wrip the paper off real quick to get to the gift.
