We’ve all been told, “Don’t play with your food.” Now we are making playthings into food, which is quite exciting. Sometimes, we have to have some fun with our food! Snack on this tasty treat after you play with it. Just make sure to keep those hands clean, though. Give a kosher food treat on day one of Hanukkah.

2. Cardboard Playhouse

Everything seems too easy to assemble today, making disposal easier also. The downside, it’s the environment which suffers from disposable synthetics. Good thing cardboard playthings are making a comeback. For Hanukkah, play prince and princesses out of your kids with a cardboard playhouse castle.

3. Wooden Building Blocks

Our favorite stacking game will always be here to stay. After all, wooden building blocks are the forerunners of assembled games or toys. These trusty toys are great for children aged 3 and up. You won’t have to worry about BPA and other harmful chemicals in plastic toys for your youngsters. Vintage wooden toys aren’t just charming, and they’re safe!

4. Traditional Jewish Hanukkah Gifts

Still, nothing beats the good wooden dreidels of old. Continue the tradition of playing and giving your kids this beloved toy. Your kids can have as many dreidels as a gift to add to their collection. A laminated wooden dreidel will make a great addition to the collection.

5. Hanukkah Cootie Catcher

A paper cootie catcher may be a simple treat, but give them to your tots, and they’ll be delighted. You can get a downloadable Chanukah chatterbox here to make for your kids. Look up to this pattern for inspiration to create your style. Something personalized and different for each kid makes it extra special.

6. Eco-Friendly Puzzles

With most toys made from plastic, cardboard toys are certainly refreshing. In fact, a lot of kids seem to take more interest in uncommon toys. You can make your own too!

About Adreanna Green

I'm a working mother and wife who strives to give the very best to my family. I like to spend quality time at the dinner table with my family without cell phones or gadgets but I admit I love referring to social media for new ideas and connect with friends. I believe in supporting small businesses, but am also aware of the fast-paced society we live in. My parenting goal is to teach my children to see the grace in their everyday lives while respecting cultural goodness outside of their backyard. I worry about the planet and all the chemicals in our food and I wish everyone was a little kinder. All in all, I'm a modern mother that whole-heartedly believes in slowing down to enjoy the journey, but also keeping up with the technologically-savvy world around us. I hope you join my family and me in our journey towards a more peaceful, sustainable every day.
