Poetry Friday – The Dreidel Song
Posted by shelburns on December 12, 2008
Here is another poem that I used in the classroom. I always tried to teach my kids about Holidays around the World during this time of year. One of the holidays was always Hanukkah, so this poem is appropriate.
The Dreidel Song
I have a little dreidel.
I made it out of clay.
And when it’s dry and ready,
My dreidel I will play.
Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
I made it out of clay.
Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
My dreidel I will play.
Enjoy the rest of today’s poems at the Poetry Round-Up over at Wild Rose Reader.

This classic has been around forever; I sang it when I was in elementary school, and now my kids have learned it. I don’t know anyone who has actually made a dreidel out of clay, though
