This simple, nonflammable menorah makes it a cinch for little ones, or bubbelahs as they say in Yiddish, to light their own candles during the Hanukkah holiday.

| What you need: | |
| Yellow and orange tempera paint
Paintbrush 9 flat wooden craft spoons Craft knife 14 9-ounce paper cups | |
| Seasons: Hanukkah | |
| Materials: paints, wood | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Have your child paint the wider ends of the wooden craft

flames. |
| 2. | Meanwhile, use the craft knife to cut a 3/4-inch slit in the bottoms of nine of the paper cups (a parent's job). |
| 3. | Cut the bottoms out of the remaining five cups and stack them rims down. |
