The whole world is a classroom!

My girl made me realize that  learning is  fun and the whole world is a class room! It's not necessary to have classroom setting to learn or to gain knowledge!

Throughout she explore through play, activities and with her surrounding uptil now!

Now it feels good when she explors the world herself! Ponting and finding shapes and colors in her surrounding! Once she said to me that "mama...it's circle" while I was making roti! Or  identifying colors in traffic light or even relating objects on real life which are in her books!


It's worth being a parent!

Some preparations we did for Eid -ul-Fitar - 2015!

Independence Day 2015

First school is home!

I am always against sending children too school too early. I always feel age five is appropriate for schooling!! Early years are for children to play, enjoy, explore and learn at home with their own unstructured way!

Rather then hanging bags on thier little backs in  early morning just beacuse his/her family feels that poor kid is getting naughty day be day...he/she needs a diciplined environment that makes a lil fellow better, productive, social! Or some felt that their toddler is now able to communicate..so its high time to enroll him/her in a school!

Sigh!! these lil fellows need us ..parents attention,  love and their lil time or grandparents talks and their stories..that make them learn which they can not learn in a diciplened or structured way! Rest they can spend their day playing and exploring on their own ...just need our sometime, its just we as adults have to understand rather sending them to make them understand!

Also these were the days where parenthood is also explored ..your child make you astonished through his/ her abilities gifted by Allah and with your little effort!

In these two years, Manha made me realize that little hands have great minds MahAllah!

Welcome Ramadan!!

Ramadan Mubarak to all of you!! May we take full advantage of this holy month!


Welcome Ramadan decor for Manha!
MashAllah she was delighted!

Praising Allah!

SubhanAllah!  Alhamdulillah! Allah u Akbar! MashAllah! La ilaha illal la! 

One should always glorify Allah, praise Him, and remember Him in our daily hectic life so that He remember us. Allah say in Surah Baqarah,

"So remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me and do not deny Me."

 I recently heard in a lecture in which it was said that when a  slave praises Him saying, SubhanALLAH, Alhamdulillah, Allah U Akbar! That person name revolves around The throne of ALLAH (SWT)! SubhanAllah..how beautiful is that!

Not only  I try to practice remembering  Him ...I strated using such praisng words in front of Manha ...with time she started saying it MashAllah! Feeling of accomplishment! :)

The funning thing is when she start a meal...after two bites she said "Alhamdulillah" -in fact "Ambdulillah" - in her language - meaning "Aami finshed" - done with the meal! :)

When she praises something she used to say "Aahaa" now she adds MashAllah too!

Upon finishing building block or finish reading or drinking milk ..she praises!

MashAllah! and Alhamdulillah! are part of her vocabulary! Again it is never too late to give exposure ..child absorbs it quickly!
