In this holiday episode of the animated Elena of Avalor series, Princess Rebeca and her family are stranded away from home and must celebrate Chanukah with new friends.

A good episode not only for Hanukah, but for setting proper expectations for all holidays this season, "Festival of Lights" has singing, celebrating, and a fun Jewish family.

From IMDb:
Princess Elena has saved her magical kingdom, Avalor, from an evil sorceress and must learn to rule as its crown princess. Elena's adventures will lead her to understand that her new role requires thoughtfulness, resilience and compassion.
