During the Hanukkah season, people give their loved ones Hanukkah cards. The Hanukkah season comes in late November and December, which is on the 25th day of Kislev, according to the Hebraic calendar.
The Hanukkah holiday commemorates the victory won during the Maccabees revolt that made it possible for the rededication of the Jerusalem Temple. Hanukkah goes on for 8 days and people give each other a Hanukkah card on each of those eight days.
The cards come in varied themes. They may be for friendship, love, anniversary, birthday or any other topic that one finds suitable in his or her relationship with a loved one.
The miracle of Hanukkah story, which tells of finding the oil flask belonging to the high priest, is commemorated in the Hanukkah cards given and by eating food that is baked or fried in oil.
Families enjoy special meals and there are special songs that are sung during this time. A common song in Israel during Hanukkah is "Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel," while countries that speak English love "Chanukah, Oh Chanukah."
