  981. I would like to win because I am a true supporter of the Cricut Machine Industry. I like to say I am a Cricuteer! I love making cards for shut ins for our church and I also make cards for my mom and Aunt to send out. Seen they are elderly and they like to send out cards it is sometimes hard for them to get to a store and buy cards. I would love the mini!!!!! Hope I win I’m trying to also get my Great Niece who is 10 involved she loves crafting! She and her sister who has MD and is 7 years old and in a wheel chair could use this to make things. So I would LOVE to WIN THIS!!!! I am also a follower on Pintrest and Facebook with cricut.

  985. I would love to win this Cricut Mini for my Mother-in-law. She is always needing to make cards, and pictures and scrapbooks and things for church. This would make her life so much easier and help her make even more beautiful projects! She’s always helping out anyone she comes in contact with and this would just be the perfect gift!

  992. I have been looking at buying a cricut for awhile. I would use it make all kinds of great items!

  995. This mini circuit is too cute! What a great and space saving idea for school, craft and work projects! I work in a gym nursery, this mini would be portable enough to bring to work!

  997. Liking me some crafty quotes! I do not own a circuit yet so seeing all these ideas would make me jealous!!!

  998. I would love to win the cricut mini so that I could craft wonderful items for my children, their birthday parties, gifts and so much more!

  1004. I want to win this because I don’t have a Cricut and the Mini would be perfect for my small craft room. I love the do paper crafts – esp card making!

  1007. I want to win for my daughter that teaches what they use to call HomeEc and she really wants one of these for so many reasons you can imagine. Ok thanks for the giveaway and have a happy holiday to all.

  1008. I liked CraftGossip.com on facebook and followed Cricut on Pinterest. What a beautiful pinterest page. There are so many wonderful things to create. My daughter is getting married in June next year and she could make many things for the wedding if she won. She is very creative and I can’t imagine the beautiful things she could make with this.

  1009. I absolutely need one. Tired of working by hand, this could solve so many of my problems. Thanks for the giveaway.

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.

And check out our previous posts for more Hanukkah crafts and learning activities!
