The Reading Bug
781 Laurel St, San Carlos, CA 94070-3113, United States
The Reading Bug is known for nurturing curiosity and creativity through books, workshops, and events. Its warm, storybook-inspired atmosphere makes it the perfect venue for a family-friendly Hanukkah celebration. With shelves full of themed books and a cozy community space, parents and children alike will feel right at home.
Why This Event Stands Out
Hanukkah is a holiday rich in meaning—celebrating miracles, resilience, and the power of light during the darkest time of the year. The Hanukkah Party with Isaac Zones brings these themes to life through music and hands-on exploration. Isaac’s performances help children learn Jewish songs, participate in rhythmic activities, and develop a deeper connection to the holiday.
The co-sponsorship from PJCC and PJ Library adds even more value. PJ Library is known for providing free Jewish children’s books to families around the world, and their presence ensures that stories and learning remain at the heart of the celebration. PJCC, a hub for family programs and Jewish cultural events, brings its commitment to inclusion and community enrichment. The combination of these organizations creates an event that is educational, welcoming, and absolutely fun.
A Celebration for All Ages
This event is designed especially for families with young children, but all ages are welcome. Toddlers love the music and movement, preschoolers enjoy the crafts and stories, and older siblings can take part in activities or simply enjoy the atmosphere. Parents appreciate the chance to connect with other local families and to introduce their children to meaningful holiday traditions in an accessible and engaging way.
Whether you celebrate Hanukkah every year or are attending your first Jewish cultural event, this party offers something for everyone. It is a wonderful opportunity to learn, celebrate, and create lasting memories together.
Make It a Day of Community Exploration

This session is perfect for parents seeking a nurturing and academically strong environment for their young learners. - Happening on January 11th at 10:00 am: Science Fun in Foster City
A hands-on experience designed to spark curiosity and inspire children through interactive science learning.
These events complement the Hanukkah celebration beautifully by offering additional opportunities for educational growth, community involvement, and cultural connection.
