What is History and Meaning of the Dreidel about?

A dreidel is a four-sided spinning top that is played with during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. Each side bears a letter of the Hebrew alphabet that together form an acronym for "a great miracle happened there", referring to the Hanukkah story. Originally these letters indicated the rules for a gambling game played with a dreidel. In Israel, some dreidels have a pei instead of shin to change the acronym to "a great miracle happened here".
