Big Spinning Dreidel Leaning Toward the Upper Right

Big Spinning Dreidel Leaning Toward the Upper Right coloring page

Coloring guide

A single spinning top, called a dreidel, is drawn at a slant with its handle pointing toward the upper right. The handle is a rounded, thick stick sitting on top of a four-sided body. Two sides of the body are visible, and each one has a big outline-style Hebrew letter on it. The left face shows a letter that looks like a chet, and the right face shows a letter that looks like a gimel. The bottom comes down to a pointed tip at the lower left, with flat triangular panels leading to it. All the lines are bold and clean, so the big open spaces are easy for small hands to fill in. Try coloring each side of the dreidel a different color, then use the letters as a talking point about the game and what each symbol stands for. This page is free to print and works well for a quick holiday activity at home or in class.
