Miniature Masjid

We made a miniature masjid using an empty cardboard box.

And some paper dolls and paper prayer rugs.

A bookshelf out of a milk carton and some books to go with it.

Door can be opened.

It was lots of fun!

Fall Poster

I haven't been posting here since Ramadan.

After some break in Ramadan, we're back to normal now, doing Calvert, Ad-Duha, and hifdh of Quran.

This is the Fall Poster we made using origami and kirigami. It's getting colder everyday, and it's nice to see the leaves changing their colors gradually, subhanAllah.

Eid Mubarak!

Ramadan has gone by so quilckly!


And here is our harvest...

MashaAllah, children have worked hard, did lots of fasting, Quran reading, praying... The older one has memorized 2 new suwar, and the younger one, 3, mashaAllah.

Ramadan really is a blessed month and I already miss it so much. May Allah make it easy for us to keep up the high eeman that we acquired, aameen.

Ramadan lantern

We made a Ramadan lantern using an empty jam bottle.

Ramadan Pop-up Cards

Children made these Ramadan Pop-up Cards.

Hifdh progress.

MashaAllah, alhumdulillah, my daughter(older one) has finished memorizing Juz Tabarak today. It took her almost 7 months to finish, and now she'll start working on Juz Qadsami' next, inshaAllah.

My second daughter is still working on Juz Tabarak, and so am I. As the amount we memorized increases, it's getting harder to review. I don't know how much I can manage supervising their hifdh, but inshaAllah, I'd like to do my best.

If any of you're working on hifdh with children, and if you have some nice tips, please share with me, inshaAllah:) And I'm looking for some nice charts on this, too.I'm going to make some myself, but if there are some nice ones available on the net, that'd be very helpful, inshaAllah.

Allah's Beautiful Names Craft

We had some craft activities today.

We've decorated some of Allah's beautiful names on paper plates. I let the children pick up their favorite names.

Good addition to Ramadan decorations:)
