ABC THESE DAYS

We can't deny, the way our children learn things these days may be far different from how we used to. They live in a time far advanced, filled with all sorts of gadgets and gizmos, and that is undeniably a big part of their education process.

How to see how different ABC can be for them? :D Check this out!

CREATIVITY, A ESSENTIAL EXPLORATION

Assalamualaikum wbt dear readers.

CREATIVITY... What can we say about it? Well to me, it is a form of self expression, it is a skill of making your own choices, it is the ability to create, as well as a new way of thinking and problem solving.

For children, creativity is important as it helps them develop their individuality and emotions. More importantly for them, the process itself is more important that the finish product.

As parents, here are some ways we can encourage our child's creativity:
1) Give space for your child to express. Listen to their stories and explanation about something attentively without guessing or interrupting.
2) If they make a mess while playing, drawing, painting or making something, it's okay. Try not to make them feel uncomfortable about it. It is part of the creative process and they shall improve with time.
3) Give assistance and little directions but try not to interfere with their activity.
4) Give them frequent opportunities, materials, time and exploration of creative materials.
5) Creative play - let them find new ways to play with something usual to them. Find toys or materials that don't spell out everything for your child. Leave something to their imagination.

These tips are simple, but they go a long way and we often easily let it slip. Insyallah, if our niat is to explore creativity with our children, Allah swt will give us an inspiration to be creative ourselves.

This is an example of very creative parents applying our Fast Reading Technique at home. Yes, parents too can be even more creative than teachers. Masyallah. Shall we call this...the umbrella technique? Haha ;D


Till we meet again, wassalam.

It is sang by Dawud Warnsby Ali. He also has many other wonderful nasheed you can benefit from. Have fun listening! :D

On the other hand, here are some books for your children to read which is written by yours truly, alhamdulillah. 'Little Maryam' and 'Princess Solehah teaches children about their daily sunnah and good examples of what to do when faced with daily challenges. It can be found at a Little Caliphs kindergarten near you, as well as 'Raising Young Caliphs, a Guide to Raising Muslim Children' which every parent should read and may Allah grant us all hidayah in guiding and raising this amanah righteously.
