Hanukkah Poll: Do You Give Your Children Eight Small Presents Or One Big Gift?
The eight day holiday of Hanukkah begins on the 25th of Kieslev — which means that in 2017, the holiday begins on the night of December 12. On the holiday, do you give your children and relatives eight small presents, one for each night, or one large one — or none at all?
Parents and Hanukkah gift givers: how many presents are given to each child during the holiday?

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
