We read this A Day of Fasting Wheel and discussed how a fasting person passes his or her day.
Then she did the A Day of Fasting worksheet from TJ. She drew the suhoor food. She said that was some sweet and water. Then she drew the Quraan saying she recites and she drew some books saying she reads. Then she wrote "CLEAN" meaning she helps with cleaning. Then for Iftaar she drew some dates and a glass of water.
We also Fatima's First Fasting Day, masha Allaah even though it was a little long she enjoyed the story especially the sighting of the moon part!!
Then she made this Journal Entry. I told her write in one word all what she would do if she was fasting. She actually wrote everything step by step asking me few spellings masha Allaah!.Then we had a blast with Roller Stamping. I told her decorate as you wish and this was the end results!!
At the end of the day I asked her now tell me is Ummi's Day of Fasting? then she said " Ummi eats Suhoor, prays Fajr, Teaches me, recites the Qur'aan, Prays, give me lunch, GETS A LITTLE ANGRY (I was like what? lol), Cooks for Iftaar, Prays, feeds me, washes me and puts me to sleep, prays Qiyaamul Layl!". Then I asked her what is Abi's day of fasting? she said " the same thing Ummi, I am very busy now ok, I got to go"...That is it : )
