Hanukkah geltHanukkah gelt (Yiddish for "money")
is often distributed to children to enhance
their enjoyment of the holiday. The amount is
usually in small coins, although grandparents
or other relatives may give larger sums as an
official Hanukkah gift. In Israel, Hanukkah
gelt is known as dmei Hanukkah. Many Hasidic
Rebbes distribute coins to those who visit them
during Hanukkah. Hasidic Jews consider this
to be an auspicious blessing from the Rebbe,
and a
segulah for success.
