      <content:encoded><![CDATA[In this episode, The Handy Hazzan and Roxy show you how to make dreydls out of clay. How many dreydls made out of clay have you seen in Judaica stores?  Learn the materials you'll need, bake the dreydls in your own oven at home, paint and clear coat.  Roxy is the painter.  The Handy Hazzan finishes with the Hebrew letters on the dreydl.  WATCH BOTH VIDEOS.  The first is "Make and Bake."  The second is "Paint and Spin." It's fun, and they really do spin!  The Handy Hazzan on guitar sings "I Have a Little Dreydl," including a few silly verses at the end. Tikkun Olam starts at home.  You can fix up your Hanukkah yourself. Happy Chanukah!! <h3>Related Entries</h3>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[CANTOR HARRIS SHORE most recently served as Hazzan for Hollywood Temple Beth El in West Hollywood, and for two years at the Los Angeles Jewish Home for the Aging in Reseda after his graduation from the Academy for Jewish Religion CA where he was ordained as Hazzan and Teacher.  It is his passion to elevate the worship experience and to heal through music, as David (Sweet singer of Israel) healed Saul (I Samuel 16:14-23).  And we read in the words of the great Haazinu (Deuteronomy 31:19), that G-d meant for Moses and all future spiritual leaders of the Jewish people to put the word of Torah into the mouths of the Children of Israel through the beauty and power of song.  ]]></content:encoded>
