The Dreidel Game
Introduction
 A dreidel is a spinning top with four sides, each marked with a different Hebrew letter (nun, gimel, hey and shin).
 The custom of playing dreidel on Hanukkah is based on a legend that when the ancient Greeks outlawed the study of Torah, (Pronounced: TORE-uh - the Five Books of Moses) Jewish children defied the decree and studied anyway.
 When a Greek official would come close they would put away their books and take out spinning tops - to outsmart them - claiming they were just playing games.
Instructions

1. Print template (see overleaf), ideally to make one dreidel per Six

5. Cut a small x in the small circle
6. Glue the lower flaps into place
7. If using paper, seal all joints with Sellotape to strengthen
8. Stick a straw or wooden dowel through the x until it reaches the bottom of the dreidel
