Islam began as something strange and will revert to being strange as it began, so give glad tidings to the STRANGERS...


Be (live) in the world as if you are a STRANGER or a passer-by...

Muslim Homeschool Activity: Cut and Paste Frenzy

Have your child reached that age when he or she just love scissors, cutting and gluing things?
Both my kids are definitely in this era now, so i thought why not direct it to something beneficial?... like learning the history of islam..
Teaching islamic history is not an easy task especially when your students are just toddlers and most of the books on islamic history are not really toddler-friendly.i came across some websites on lapbooking and found it a very interesting and fun way to teach the kids islam.
Tried it with my toddlers, and this was what we came up with..



i let my son choose a topic and he chose the battle of badr..
so there i was.. looking through the seerah books.. thats the bea uty of homeschooling.. you thought that you're the teacher, true enough.. but most of the time you'd find yourself teaching your teacher!
you know what i mean?!
back to the topic of discussion... so after reading the history book myself..
i used simple and short sentences, wrote it in boxes of different shapes, let them color, cut and paste them all.. Alhamdulillah, my kids really enjoyed it ..
