Have you ever felt discontent with what you have, sought out something new, only to realize the old thing was best for you? This was the plight of Mr. Bird and Mrs. Bird as they set off to seek 'The Best Nest' (by P. D. Eastman). The story also led us to discuss the origins of the Adhaan, Alhumdulillah.
Keeping our sunny summer days in view, the Bookworms set out to make their own sun visors. This was done by cutting coloured foam sheets, punching holes at its ends and stringing a piece of elastic through it. The children then decorated them with glitter glue, bits of foam sheets and markers, Mash'Allah.Keeping the soon to be starting month of Ramadan in mind, Isa read an article he had written about the month to his friends for "Show and Tell", Masha'Allah. He has offered his friends' to view it online at this address: http://bapsblog.pirani.com/2011/07/ramadan-by-ibap-aged-10.html

We will be holding our next session after Eid Insha'Allah. May Allah SWT make the month of Ramadan a source of reward and benefit for all of us. Aameen.
I'm sure you've had a wonderful read with this completely awesome book. :) Both my kids loved the book so much that they nearly learned all of it by heart. And it's great to see the progress with the plants! May Allah (swt) give all of you a fruitful Ramadan, ameen.
