Best Answer

Jews prepare for Hanukkah by buying sufficient material to light the Menorah for 8 days. This could be done by buying 36 candles, or oil and wicks as well as matches or a lighter. A menorah would be prepared - see http://www.answers.com/topic/hanukiah for what constitutes a kosher menorah. Some would also familiarize themselves with the Al ha-Nissim prayer that is added during Hanukkah. You can find the English translation of it at http://www.answers.com/topic/hanukkah - half way down the "page". (Page 6 in the printed format.)
