So what did we thinking of? Well, camping indoors of course. We started off building our ‘tent’, using our sofa covers thrown off some […]
Read MoreAsalamu alaykum ladies, For the last month or so I have been busy preparing, planning, scheduling and organising our coming school year, and all I can say is I have dark circles underneath my eyes, it’s not easy. But Alhamdulillah, we’re almost there. As a way to get our mornings off to a good start […]
Read MoreAsalamualaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu mamas Today I wanted to share an activity me and S did together, made from everyone’s best friend, cardboard! One of the hardest things I’ve found whilst homeschooling is how to keep the little ones busy when doing more focused subjects, especially Quraan memorisation with the elder kiddos. With other […]
Read MoreAsalamualaykum mamas, How are you all? Today my youngest and I sat down and did a simple activity together based on one of his biggest passions….. ROCKS. Whenever we go for walks or take a trip to the park S is the first to gather some rocks for his ever-growing collection.
