The holiday
Rosh Hashanah the Jewish New Year, in autumn
Hanukkah eight nights of light, in winter
Purim a joyful, dress-up holiday
Passover a special meal, in spring
Shabbat a day of rest, every week
What families do
Dip apples in honey for a sweet year
Light one more candle each night, and play with a dreidel
Wear costumes, make noise, and eat triangle cookies
Gather for a seder and retell a long-ago story
Light candles on Friday and share challah bread
