31632 S-Class_Chanukah Gift Guide.indd 1 10/30/13 5:07 PM
This year’s New Jersey/Rockland Jewish Media Group’s Chanukah Gift Guide comes a year after the
unprecedented nor’easter that hit our area. Many of our readers and their families have rebuilt their homes and lives — but no one will ever forget Superstorm Sandy. This year, Chanukah begins at sundown on November 27 and Thanksgiving is November 28 — so to all our readers and friends — Happy Thanksgivukkah!
Having Chanukah and Thanksgiving occur on the same day hasn’t happened since 1888 and will not happen again for thousands of years; the closest we will come are in 2070 and 2165, when Chanukah will begin sometime during Thanksgiving dinner.
This year’s Festival of Lights, therefore, not only celebrates the miracle of the Maccabees fighting to save the Jewish people from the Syrians and the miracle of the oil in the temple lasting for eight
days, it also marks the day Americans give thanks for all we have. Together, Thanksgivukkah is a celebration of tradi-tions, family, and food. It is with this in mind, that we wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with lots of memories.
Think about what you might like for yourself as a gift and use that as a clue to what others might appreciate. Dreidels and chanukiot (Chanukah me-norahs) are always welcome and truly brighten homes for many years to come. Donations are the gifts that keep on giv-ing — consider making one to someone’s favorite charity.
Our handy gift guide features some great new cookbooks and books, food, and candy baskets, cameras, massages and spa indulgences, fabulous jew-elry and gift items, hats, toys, and even an electric car.
So here’s to Chanukah and Thanks-giving, and Thanksgivukkah, too!
HappyChanukah!

For The Children
A Kippah Kantor set in-cludes an adorable doll for girls and boys accompanied by a book “Kippah Kantor Hanukkah” by Cindy Hauk illustrated by Julie Leiman Weaver. The Kippah Kantor magically visits families during Chanukah and ap-pears when children and families do good deeds. It is suggested that the family hides the doll in the house each night for the children to find the next day. The sto-ry is about being good and doing mitzvot that in fact, the Kippah Kantor sees.

Start a new family Chanukah tradition with “The Mensch on a Bench.” The set with a doll and book, recalls the story of Moshe the Mensch who was in the temple when Judah and the Maccabees won the war against the Greeks. There was only enough oil for one night, but who would watch over the nenorah while everyone was sleeping? Moshe the Mensch! A Jewish dad who wanted to teach his children about Chanukah while adding new traditions to the family created the set. To get you own Mensch to watch over your family’s menorah, visit themenschonabench.com.

It encompasseas such a wide variety of life’s experiences that people of all ages and religions will resonate to these timeless prayers.
