Introduce little hearts to the meaning of Hanukkah with My First Hanukkah: Eight Nights of Light, a sturdy illustrated board book from Olive Shoots Little Learners created especially for toddlers and preschoolers.
Through simple words and warm, inviting illustrations, children discover that Hanukkah means dedication and learn about courage, faithfulness to YHWH, the Temple in Jerusalem, eight nights of light, family traditions, and the joy of celebrating together.
The story also introduces the beautiful biblical connection to Yeshua. Children learn that Scripture places Yeshua in Jerusalem during the Feast of Dedication in John 10:22–23, and they are introduced to His words:
“I am the Light of the world.” — John 8:12
The book closes by helping little learners understand that walking with Yeshua means letting His light shine through the way we love, help, share, and care for others.
Along the way, children will recognize familiar Hanukkah traditions such as lighting the Hanukkiah, spinning dreidels, gathering with family, and sharing special foods—all presented within a gentle story centered on dedication, remembrance, faithfulness, and light.
Made for little hands, this 6" × 6" board book features thick chipboard pages, rounded corners, and a matte laminated finish that helps resist fingerprints and glare. It is sturdy enough for repeated story time while beautiful enough to become a treasured part of your family's Hanukkah traditions.
