Assalamo ‘alaykum and welcome. “The Three Fundamental Principles” was written so that everybody could learn.

And, byRead more
Assalamu ‘alaykum and welcome. Download your RAMADAN DOODLE CHALLENGE list HERE. I am getting the usual last minute rush of pre-Ramadan ideas. New concepts emerge thick and fast from the brain fog, between teaching to tell the time and washing a big pile of dishes. As we know, the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad (sallaRead more
Assalamu alaykum and welcome. When I set out to review and improve “30 Days with the Names of Allah” (which I first compiled in 2017), I was excited to offer a better product to the Muslim community; however, I was conscious that at least some children – including my own – had aready completed it.Read more

Assalamo alaykum and welcome. It is definitely not Summer anymore (I can’t help but smile – now that my kids can’t see me).

Assalamo alaykum and welcome. It is the time of year when those who haven’t been blessed with the opportunity to perform this great act of worship, feel like brushing up on their knowledge of Hajj.

Assalamo alaykum and welcome. We have missed poetry teatime, alhamdulillah. If you are not sure what poetry teatime is, it involves reading poetry aloud in your homeschool as part of a lifestyle in which children – and their adults! – are immersed in a rich linguistic and literary environment.
