There are 8 days to Chanukah. This allows for the 4 candles on each
side of the Schamos, which is taller than the rest and the others are
lit from.
Each night, for all 8 nights, the candles are lit progressively. The
first is lit on the first night. The first and second on the second
night, and so on through all 8 nights, until all are lit.
It is only used at the time of Chanukah and as the candles are lit a
rememberance blessing is said. It is a fun holidays for the children,
steeped in family tradition.

The 8+1 candelabrum used for Hanukkah is rightly called a Hanukkiah --
but it is commonly called a Menorah by most people since they don't quite
know the difference, but are savvy enough to understand about Menorahs. The
Menorah is the 7-branched candelabrum described in the Scriptures.
