Teaching Quran

Today we have been to masjid for magrib prayers where my daughter safia stood up for prayer along with everyone. Mashallah she read prayer so loud along with others, and when finishing all the ladies in the room gathered and praised her, where in safia got so scared.

To say she doesnt go to any school, its all homeschool for her, but i use the website www.reciter.org
where in the child will be able to memorize it easily. And inshallah i intend to teach her more.

Hajj Counting

This is a wonderful craft where i have borrowed it from another sister who is excellent in doing homeschooling for her children, Mashallah its wonderful, i loved it so did my princess.

She just adored the cards i just had to print them and stick it to a cardboard, as im running short of it Inshallah i shall soon get some, otherwise the cards will go for a mess.

Soon inshallah shall post the photos of it.

I know the photos are bit late but here they go.

Masjid Puzzle.

First and foremost this credit goes to a sister where i have seen on her blog. It was the best thing i could get, She does have beautiful ideas Mashallah.

I got the Geometric design from a website she mentioned on her blog http://www.scribd.com/doc/21335679/pattern-blocks-masjids . I took the design from there cut the shapes of the masjid, i used foam so that she wont hurt herself with it.

I glued the paper to a cardboard so that it will be easy for her to play.

And it is the best thing i could find, as we dont get islamic puzzles in stores easily. My little one plays with them and now she can avoid watching Laptop for a longtime and playing puzzles on the system.

I ensured to put the shapes in the ziplock bag so that we wont loose them and she has her folder made by herself so that it will be at one place.









Alumdillulah it works great for me with her, I appreciate the great work by the sisters.

Pencil & pen stand.

I have so many crazy things going on, few days before we had to go to hospital due to an emergency and where in my daughter took few magazine along with her, so now i dint know what to do with so many magazines lying around in the room. So here i go again looking around what to do. They were not useful for me to read and i was just gathering and pilling up the trash in the room, all of sudden looking at a waterbottle i got an idea but to implement i had to look over and surf the net for it. Absolutely google would pop up with many ideas and i picked one from it. I would really say the great effort where the sites have done, have so many brilliant ideas.

My Pensil and pen stand, i used a disposable water bottle cut it into half used the bottom one and discarded the mouth. But if you have any ideas please feel free to post it, so that we could even use the mouth. Now for me to use the magazine, i cut one page to half took a pencil and rolled the paper into it. i glue it and then remove the pencil. Then i stick the rolled magazine to the bottle one after the other i completed the pencil stand. Now as usual my daughter glues it while i roll it. We finished it in 2 hours time. And Alhumdillulah it is so useful for me, now that one stand is not being enough for the pencils. She has it in the room displaying it.

Paper Holder

My messy little girl, she uses so many pages, get few from the printer, when her father comes home gives her few notebooks uses them just to scribble, nor does she use the whole page just write a line there and immediately jumps to another page, These things cant be stopped and i dont want to spoil her enjoyment, end of the day what she does is there is no place for her to keep those pages.

So we have decided to make a holder for her. I saw this again from a recycle crafts website. Mashallah when coming to crafts my one is so much engrossed. I took a Oreo biscuit box the bulk one or you could even use a cereal box to make it. cut it into the shape shown in the figure and i glued the construction paper to it so that my little one can color over as she enjoys doing so.

Finally alhumdillulah its done.

Flower Vase

The other day we went for shopping and were in search of a red vase, we saw few crystal wear but dint like it as i know my daughter and i even know if it breaks she will be the first one to get hurt. So while browsing in the recycle crafts website we saw a Flower vase made of disposable glasses. Wow! that amazed us so much so we though why not let my daughter try it. I had to do the cutting and rest is she sticking Mashallah. While doing stuff like these she has got all the interest and is so glued to it.

We took three disposable glasses in one glass i put papers and ensured it is heavy so that it wont tilt, But we could even put sand. Me using sand will be mess on the carpet. And with the next cup I put a hole in the bottom and turned the glass upside down and sticked the mouths of the glasses. with the Thrid glass i again cut a hole in the base then i stick the bottoms together. Now decoration is upto you. Mine wear flowers and clovers. Flowers are not made by me.

I told my daughter to wait until it sticks but she was so impatient, finally she collected few flowers from dollar store and there it goes.

Shh!!! iam praying door hanger

Today was a great day for my daughter her wish has finally come true, she saw a doorhanger on a website and wanted to prepare it on her own, as we could not find time i kept on delaying it but finally today we have done it Alhumdillulah.

It is so nice to see her interest and the excitment on her face, she finally made her Shh!... Iam praying door hanger. It is really so cute to look at. I had to naturally use my skills to do it as she is too young to use scissors. So she does the sticking part i get to do the cutting part. Mashallah she has made it for her self.

Now that she is done, when ever It is time for Salaat she has her door hanger ready Mashallah.
