How to Play the Dreidel Game
1. Collect gelt (chocolate coins, candy, or pennies). Put part of it in a cental pot, and divide the rest qually among players.
2. Take turns spinning the dreidel. If it lands on nun (See picture below), you get nothing. If it lands on hay (See picture below), you get half the pot. If it lands on shin (See picture below), you must put your gelt into the pot. If it lands on gimel (See picture below), you get to take the whole pot. Whoever ends up with the most gelt wins!
