Art Of Candle Making Business Startup

Unlike other candle making books that only provide basic instructions and a few recipes, this book offers a comprehensive guide on how to create beautiful, natural, and organic candles. The author aims to help readers understand the difference between making any candle and creating a unique blend that can set their candle making business apart from others.

The book is divided into two parts. The first part explains the fundamentals of candle making, including the equipment and tools needed, how to source raw materials, and how to properly scent and color candles. The author also shares various candle making methods and safety rules to follow, as well as the best and easiest projects to start with.

The second part focuses on how to turn this newfound passion into a successful business. The author shares her experience of growing a soap making business from scratch to a six-figure enterprise and selling it for a good profit. She also teaches readers how to find their niche, price their candles, avoid common mistakes, and market and sell their products to wholesalers and retailers.

Whether you’re a hobbyist or aspiring entrepreneur, this book is packed with practical tips and step-by-step guidance that can help you create beautiful and unique candles and turn your passion into a profitable business.

Hanukkah Unit Studies for Kids

Learning about Hanukkah is important for people of all faiths as a reminder that December isn’t just about Christmas and that their are many other important holidays that happen during this time. Hanukkah unit studies can give you ideas for incorporating the holiday into your holiday studies that happen in December, or to use at home for learning about people of different faiths.

Homeschool Superfreak has a lot of basic ideas for how to build a Hanukkah unit study, as well as FAQs about what Hanukkah is and why it is celebrated. This list is a good stargint point but doesn’t include all the details you’ll need. For example it says you can play the dreidel game but doesn’t explain how to do that or why it’s important. (If you need that information, this post from Mama Smiles is a good source.)

Teachers Pay Teachers has lots of great lesson plans and activities if you’re willing to pay a little bit to get some good content. Two I really like are this Hanukkah PowerPoint presentation from Shelia Melton, which provides a good overview of traditions, food and the history of Hanukkah; and a virtual field trip to Jerusalem from MagiCore, which includes lots of videos showing the city and activities like playing dreidel, drawing a menorah and making latkes. It’s a Google Drive folder and also includes writing activities and more for kids in second to fifth grade.

Kids Activities Blog has some simple printables with facts about Hanukkah and things kids can color in like a Star of David, sufganiyots (jelly doughnuts) and a menorah. These are great for learning the basics.

Homeschool Giveaways has a printable ebook about Hanukkah complete with questions kids can answer after they read. This would be a good one for older kids with good reading comprehension.

NurtureStore’s Hanukkah unit study includes a printable mini book, tons of crafts, as well as math and writing activities. I love the dominoes game that’s part of the unit.
