HANUKKAH MUSICAL CHAIRS: The old favorite. With one fewer chairs than people, a short snippet of music is played while the people move around the room. When the music stops everyone tries to sit on a vacant chair. (Only ONE person per chair) The person who doesn't find a chair is out. One chair is taken away and the game continues until only one person (The Winner) is left.
This is a very old game, but is always a very great favorite for the Hanukkah. The more the players, the greater the fun. The way to play it is as follows: The players sit in a circle and begin to count in turn, but when the number 8 or any number in which the figure 8 or any multiple of 8 is reached, they say "Buzz," instead of whatever the number may be. As, for instance, supposing the players have counted up to 14, the next player will say "15," the next "Buzz" because 16 is a multiple of 8 (twice 8)—the next player would then say "17" and the next would, of course, say "Buzz" because the figure 8 occurs in the number 18. If one of the players forgets to say "Buzz" at the proper time, he is out. The game then starts over again with the remaining players, and so it continues until there is but one person remaining. If great care is taken the numbers can be counted up to 80, which, according to the rules before mentioned, would, of course, be called Buzz. The numbers would then be carried on as Buzz 1, Buzz 2, etc., up to 89, but it is very seldom that this stage is reached. Hanukkah is full of numbers, so this could be used to tell celebrate the eight days of Hanukkah.
This is a great game to play on Hanukkah. Each child chooses a partner and stands opposite to her, so that two long lines are formed. Each couple holds a candle between them, as high as they can lift their arms, so as to form an arch. The couple standing at the top of the lines run through the arch without letting go of their candle, and station themselves at the bottom of the lines, raising their candle again so as to continue the arch. This is done by each couple in succession until all have had a turn. Whoever breaks the arch or drops the candle must pay a forfeit.
