The Ramadan Panic
I have seen several posts this season about the commercialization of Ramadan and the avalanche of posts with Ramadan crafts and decor. Some mamas are feeling overwhelmed and say that they are not going to go all out this year in some sort of attempt to compete with Christmas. To tell the truth neither am I.

Isra wal Miraj: Scroll
Isra wal Miraj: Scroll
In preparation for Isra wal Miraj we have displayed an accordion book that can also be hung as a vertical scroll where the Prophet’s (s) journey begins at the bottom and ends at the top.
With this scroll we want the children to understand:

GOOSE
The Goose waddled forward and asked, “What gift shall I bring my king?”

SWAN
The swan glided forward upon a pond of glass and ripples spread by his wings. The swan claimed to love the Simourgh of the Caucasus but it was himself that he loved and not his true king.

Pool of Paradise: The Crow
This is the 25th part of our Pool of Paradise project for children in Ramadan.
CROW
The crow lighted with a clamorous flapping of wings nearly toppling the perch and asked if boldness was a crucial component of courage for the journey at hand. “For I am full of boldness,” he said, “but less so of wisdom by some measure.”
The Hoopoe said, “A true sage is bold from certainty of purpose and…

This is the 21st part of our Pool of Paradise project for children in Ramadan.
RAVEN
The raven lighted, straight and sleek, folding his shiny black feathers tightly beside him.
“I am resigned to the journey yet suffrage is for a purpose but suffering is not. I fear I will not be among those that survive this journey and so what will become of us who preserver yet fail to reach the end?”
