For those of you who celebrate Hanukkah, I’m sure you’re going to appreciate these jokes from parents about this special holiday.
Let’s get started!
I don’t think the architects of Hanukkah considered the long term psychological effects of giving a toddler a present every night. For eight consecutive nights.

Dad, do we celebrate Hanukkah?
"No, honey that's a Jewish holiday."
My friend Jake celebrates it but he's not Jewish, he's a vegetarian.— Tim (@Playing_Dad) December 3, 2014
6yo just decorated a cardboard menorah my mum gave him for Chanukah.
There was glitter.
My mum and I are no longer on speaking terms.

Kid: grandma and grandpa are coming for Hanukkah and bringing guilt.
Me: you mean gelt
Also me: yup.

Nothing and I mean NOTHING prepares you for the day your 10yo tells you he wants a ball warmer for Hanukkah.

My 9 y/o and 12 y/o are watching Elf while decorating Hanukkah cards for their grandparents. I want to see Will Ferrel play a Macabee in a Jewish remake.

Hanukkah Mom Nightmare: You wake up in a cold sweat thinking you only got each kid 7 gifts instead of 8. #KeepingTabsOn @Luvs @TheBlogU

It’s ok for my kid to tell another kid that Santa’s not real when they say Hanukkah is stupid, right?

And on the second night of Hanukkah, I lit the menorah while my non-Jewish kid sang "Happy Birthday" just like my ancestors intended.

For a Hanukkah gift, I'm gonna assemble my son's birthday present from July.
