[HANASHIR:7699] Re: Ocho Kandelikas

Not only do the audiences love it, but the kids get hooked real quick as
long as you let them 'tango' through it. (Grades K-8!)   They love the
syncopation.  make a big deal out of it.   pass out some percussion
instruments, a few wands, and away you go!   Chag Chanukah Sameach!
