Behind the design


The inspiration for the candles, which glow in colorful patterns when slotted into place, comes from the meaning of the Hanukkah menorah itself. The menorah symbolizes a miracle, so I wanted the candles to have a magical appearance too! —Adi

My kiddo LOVED putting this together. She was able to do it on her own without parental involvement and was very proud of the results. It looked gorgeous shining in our window, especially at night. We appreciate that Kiwicrate offered a kit for Hanukkah and hope that there will be more in the future.

Loved the whole idea / concept. The sanding of the candles was too tough for my 5 year old, but she got to do everything else. Great way to expose her to this part of her family.

This was such an impressive menorah! My son loved building it, had a blast creating each candles, and took great pride in turning it on each evening of Hanukkah. It will become part of our yearly celebration for sure!
