Children’s Ramadan Race

so your children can connect to the month of Ramadan with joy and love.

Get your children into the beautiful spirit of Ramadan with these fun weekly challenges and bonus daily opportunities for goodness! Share the blessings of this month with your children by encouraging them to undertake these child-sized acts of devotion, kindness, service and bringing happiness to others.

How it works:

• Every week, invite your child to undertake the weekly challenge, as something they will do everyday for one week in Ramadan.
• You can also invite your child every morning to do a bonus daily action, from the calendar.
• Tune into daily check-in sessions at 5:30 EST on the Sanad Collective facebook page when our teachers will remind and reinforce the daily and weekly challenges, as well as tell a story or even have an online-jam-session! These sessions are interactive as your child will be invited each day to share how he/she fulfilled the challenges of the day and week, and we’ll celebrate your child’s achievements as a community!
• Post photos or videos of your children doing their weekly or daily tasks with the hashtag #RamadanRace2020 to share and celebrate with us.
• We encourage you to print out the calendar (posted in the discussion section) and have your kids check off challenges as they complete them.
