Kids can make hanging menorahs like Moroccan and Indian Jews, learn how dreidel is played in Israel and hand-press olives as Italian Jewish communities do. Live music and partner organizations add to the fun. The program is geared to ages 2 to 8, but all are welcome; it is outdoors, so bundle up. ## Similar picks in San Francisco - [Brisbane Festival of Lights: 40th Anniversary Tree Lighting at Community Park](https://grassyknees.com/san-francisco/activities/brisbane-festival-of-lights-40th-anniversary-tree-lighting-at-communit--listing-3feb64e9342ed81d38271a7a) — Sun, Dec 6 · 5:30 PM – 8:00 PM · Brisbane Community Park · All ages · checked Oct 27.
