> *The Israel Museum Pyromania Show is very good but if you haven't booked 
> in
> advance then most shows are sold out and tickets won't be available at the

> go
> then just be aware that parking at the Israel Museum is very hard because
> half of the parking lot is under construction. Take a bus or a taxi.
>
> *Hechal Shlomo's (aka Wolfson Museum) Hanukka activities were a great hit
> for two of our readers. One Reader's kids (11 yrs, 9yrs, 6yrs) loved the
> show, art activities, treasure hunt and view of the city. Thursday at
> 12:00pm they will have the second showing of their live show, "The Jug 
> That
> Spoke."
>
> *The Museum of the Underground Prisoner may not be a usual stop for 
> families
> but this Hanukka they have a special "Mystery in the Prison Hallways" a 
> game
> of missions for families. The Museum is in the center of town next to the
> Russian Compound.
>
> *Take advantage of the Kotel Candle Lighting and take your kids through 
> the
> streets of the Old City after dark to see all of the Hanukiot lit outside
> the houses. It's a great FREE activity. To end on a high note take the bus
> home J
>
> *Ye Old English Tea Shoppe has closed down. I learned the hard way after I
> hyped up my kids for a fun lunch and showed up to find an empty 
> storefront.
>
> *Although Roladin Sufganiyot are the most exotic, you can also find a 
> great
> fresh sufganiya at Paer in the German Colony (Chocolate, Strawberry or 
> Ribat
> Chalav) and Marzipan (Chocolate, Vanilla, Ribat Chalav and Strawberry) in
> the Shuk or on Rachel Immenu.
>
> *If you are looking to get out of town then the Moshav Mevo Modiin day 
> tour
> is wonderful.  Learn to milk a goat, make cheese, batik picture , clay and
> spinning and enjoy a donkey ride. There is a live concert in the shul and
> then a tour of ancient ruins with a guide. There is a  Pizzeria there too
> (not from ancient times). Make reservations in advance.
