Aqeedah for kids

Bismillah

Alhamdulillah we started on our Aqeedah lessons and made 2 lapbooks so far. Yusuf is 3,5 years old, so they are designed for his age group. 


Alhamdulillah we have lots of materials to use for our Aqeedah lessons, thanks to our Ummi bloggers for sharing and making those materials available for our children and us (parents). May Allah swt bless them and their families immensely, ameen.


We will be using following materials that we have available in our hands:

1. Allah our Creator book by Sajda Nazlee and other children's Islamic books from www.goodwordbooks.com.

2. Umm An-Nu'man's Islamic Studies Mini Books (preK).

3. Musulmon bolaning kitobchasi - it's Q&A book on Aqeedah in Uzbek for small children.

InshaAllah we will be adding more materials as we find them. 


Allah is our Creator:






Allah swt created everything: day and night, sun and moon and stars, Earth, mountains, trees and flowers, animals and fish, houses, cars, etc.

Letter Gg and letter Hh

Bismillah

Please forgive me for the long absence. We continued with out letters, although I wasn't able to update here. But we didn't do much last two weeks, since kids' Dad was home and they had lots of outdoor time alhamdulillah.

Letter Gg
















You can download letter Gg printable from HERE, inshaAllah. I must say that all the pictures on the paper were chosen by Yusuf.

We did following activities for the letter Gg: Letter Gg is for grapes, gumballs. Yusuf worked with glue and colored with paint and crayons. Alphabet coloring sheets were mainly taken from http://www.3dinosaurs.com/ and http://www.confessionsofahomeschooler.com/.


To encourage more good behavior from his side, we started A Good deeds jar project. We took a jar and decorated it. Reward for the good deed does not necessarily has to be something sweet, it can be a small note with a certain good deed written on it (example). When the child collects more of them, or fills the jar with good deeds, you can get child a book, a toy, etc.  


We also made a paper mache globe, there are lots of them on the internet with step by step pictures and guidelines. Ours did not turn out to be perfect, we started off with bigger balloon, we applied the first layer of glue and left the balloon to dry for 2 days. But somehow I didn't go back to do the second layer for a while and kids played with it. When I hold the balloon it was not firm and solid anymore with few indentations on it. Yusuf took a lot smaller balloon and said let's do the globe again. We only did one layer of glue and it was enough. For the continents we chose traditional Montessori continent colors.
