A Dreidel!
There's also a song that goes with it when you spin it.
I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play
CHORUS
Oh dreidel dreidel dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play
It has a lovely body
With legs so short and thin
And when it is so tired
It drops and then I win!
CHORUS
My dreidel's always playful
It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let's begin!
CHORUS
