Father's Day craft
made by Vito

We do celebrate the Father's Day every year, but this time was different, because Vito already entered and he's learned how to write letters. At school, he made a sweet and lovely gift for his dad. A simple love letter for dad, it's written "I Love you, Dad.". After school Vito put the letter on the working desk. Finally, daddy come home and then he opened the letter, he was really surprised and touched. He said "I love you too, son. You always make me proud."

Teaching Our Children about Ramadan

Alhamdulillah, Allah still gives us the opportunity to meet the holy month of Ramadan 1437 H. When a Muslim reaches mature age, he/she should have fast and other ibadah in Ramadan. As parents, we need to train our kids to fast and give them the meaning of Ramadan which the rewards and benefits are very plentiful.
