Ir Smeha is preparing for the festival of lights

 

We learned about the history of the holiday, about Alexander the Great and Antiochus, about the Maccabean troops.

And also what are the lights and why there are eight main ones, why is the ninth candle needed.

Together with Alina Mishina, the guys from the “city of joy” did the impossible – they combined paper and fire. With the help of talented hands and simple material at hand, they made candles out of paper and created their own menorah.
