Another freedom has arrived: 5 things it is better not to do on Hanukkah with the children
We are still carrying the scars of the Tishrei holidays, and here tomorrow the children are going on another long vacation, and another one that has the expectation of non-stop activities.
Ophir Sagarsky examined all the recommendations for parents, and understood what is simply forbidden to do on this holiday.
This is her alternative list

Hanukkah has arrived, the parents are already anxious and the lists of family activities are flooding the net, but only one list will tell you what to * not * do with the children under any circumstances.
It may overlap in some sections with others, since what is most recommended is usually not really.
The list is in female language, but the Walla!
Health believes mothers and fathers should keep their feet off the activities equally.

Hanukkah has a health price that you probably do not know
To the full article
A visit to Roldan.
Are you interested in a mixture of dough, oil, nougat, chocolate chips, coconut chips, wood chips and a rubber duck in your stomach - it's already a personal taste.
But never, and I emphasize, never take the children there.
Did you come across a branch on the way?
Grabbed the little hand, hurried with all their might and mumbled "there is in the house" with a penetrating look at the horizon.
The same procedure used in front of a toy or candy store applies to the hyper-psychedelic abundance of colorful donuts, even if it requires you to make an unreasonable detour toward the mall.
Next to that, the next section.
Mall and kids it does not go together.
Certainly not on vacation.

2. Spending time in the mall.
Why do people still do it?
Has anyone ever enjoyed spending time with a mall with the kids?
I know what's going through your mind: I'll leave the child in the hands of the failing child star on duty, sit on the side, snack on frozen yogurt.
Who knows, maybe I'll even make it to jump to Zara before I find the soft one waiting for me in its place while the big one keeps it, happy in quality time, both are curious as to where the fox chocho is.
In practice, not only are you unlikely to find a moment for yourself, you're going to bleed from your ears between a creaking microphone, murderous speakers and thousands of screaming kids, afraid of losing yours while you feel like leaving them there and never coming back.
And no, nobody cares about Chocho.
There's a reason this show is in the mall and for free.

3. Candle lighting for single friends / without children.
There are two types of candle lighting sessions - with and without children - and do not mix and match. If the children were not invited in advance, while flames such as "the boys of the mandalas will also come"; If no spinning tops and / or coloring books were mentioned in the artistic program; If no artistic program was mentioned at all - then it is a bachelor candle lighting. In that case, the kids are going to get bored until the hostess' kitchen is set on fire, and even if not, everyone is going to suffer from their presence. Hard but true words, and it's time for someone to put them in writing. Parents, let's remember that babysitting is not a bad word. Expensive, it's yes. Also the sanity of those around. Also, there is no need to invite single friends to you to light family candles.
4. Festigal
.
The most popular Hanukkah show is also the most extreme case of a negative price-value ratio.
Every year again I am amazed to discover how many parents are willing to pay for a ticket, pay another double for merchandise and get stuck in traffic jams in Haifa to the sounds of the winter hit "Mom Pee, Mom Poop, Mom Candy", all for sixth grade graduation dialogues and songs Do not be ashamed of bat mitzvah clips from the early 2000s.
Want to enrich the cultural world of children in a play?
Buy a ticket for something worthwhile and invested, with quality players, for a quarter of the price.
The kids will complain a little, and then no more.
Besides, you also deserve to enjoy, or at least not suffer at all.
In reality it is denser and noisier.

5. Going out into nature
. By and large, nature is an adult attraction. Kids do not really grasp the benefit of a beautiful view. It does not shoot, flash or sing bluffs - so what do you do with it actually? For them, an essential object in the world is one that does something for them or does something with it, otherwise it is pure boredom. If you are honest with yourself, you will find that even nature alone is not enough, and the main value you find in it is your selfie in it or, mercifully, the family photo to Insta with the words "we went for a walk". It is not that there are no curious children, nature lovers, who are happily interested in what this or that type of plant is, but these are individuals of virtue. Unfortunately, you can not guarantee that your child will be like that or force him to take an interest. Most often, expect sighs of existential despair, pleas to return home, crowded friction with all the people of Israel and its sister, the challenge of services in nature, feverish preoccupation with bamba from the depths of the bag, demand for screen time, amazement at his absence, falls, crying, scratching, crying and signs of distress in the presence of reptiles nearby.If you are watching this dangling, do yourself and them a favor and save the experience in advance. This does not mean that you are less good mothers, only connected to reality.
