There are blessings which are said for the candle-lighting, sung each night (see below). Also, the Al Hanisim and Hallel prayers are added to the regular synagogue services; and a portion from the Torah is read each day.
Before lighting the Chanukiah (the menorah), the following blessing are said in Hebrew:
1. Praised are You, Lord our God, King of the Universe, Who sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to kindle the Hanukkah lights."
2. Praised are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, Who performed wondrous deeds for our ancestors, in those days, at this season."
3. This third blessing is recited only on the first night: "Praised are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, Who has kept us in life, sustained us, and enabled us to reach this season."

Christmas is a Christian holiday that celebrates the birth of Jesus and lasts for 1 day. Hanukkah is an 8 day Jewish holiday that celebrates a military victory against invaders who attempted to force our assimilation to paganism.

There is no tradition of gift giving during Hanukkah although a large percentage of North American Jews do give gifts of some sort these days.
What is an example of Jehovah witness prayers?
As one of Jehovah's Witnesses, I can answer that for you first hand. First, our prayers are done without the use of any trinkets, orniments, beads, or anything like that. We do not have any set prayers that are already written out or manuscripted either. All of our prayers are directed to Jehovah, the GOD of Heaven, and are done through his son Jesus Christ. A Jehovah's Witness might pray several times a day for anything from thanking GOD for a meal, this day of life, or some other blessing. A prayer could be one requesting help with a problem, or asking for GOD's holy spirit to be upon the one praying, or it could be that the requests are being made on behalf of someone else. The list of things we might pray about are really too numerous to mention. A Jehovah's Witness might find themself praying about anything, because we believe that GOD's will should be taken into consideration in all aspects of our daily life. Answer2: Jehovah's Witnesses do not memorize prayers and recite them at the meetings or anywhere else. The repititon of memorized prayers does not please God. Jesus left us the model prayer at Matthew 6:9-10 to give all of us an idea of things to pray for and about. Prayers are very private and very personal. They are an indication of our love for God and our trust in him. Jesus even looked for private places to pray. Matthew 14:23 "After sending the crowds away, he went uo on the mountain by himself to pray." Mark 10:35 "Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he got up and went outside and left for an isolated place, and there he began praying." So Jehovah's Witnesses follow Jesus example making prayers and private and personal matter. At our public meetings, the Memorial of Christ Death, Assemblies, Conventions, Funerals and Memorial talks a speaker or chairman will give an opening and closing prayer. Heartfelt prayer spiritually enhances all our meetings and is offered on behalf of all those assembled.
