Question

Is it permissible to light colorful Hanukkah candles intended for children on Erev Shabbat?

Answer

Colorful candles that burn for only half an hour should not be lit by children who have reached the age of education. Only when there is no other option can one be lenient in retrospect and fulfill the obligation with these candles.
