Ramadan is an important month in the Islamic calendar, and teaching kids about Ramadan is a great way to introduce religious and cultural experiences that they might not be familiar with.
If you need a little education on the subject as well, Artsy Craftsy Mom has a great rundown of the basics of Ramadan, why and how fasting takes place and the special holiday that marks the end of the fast.
She also has a nice collection of Ramadan crafts kids can try to further their understanding and appreciation of this special time. Pictured is the Good Deeds tree from Little Wings Creative. That post also includes some children’s books about Ramadan and other fun ideas.
