Hajj Resources for Kids
We spend so much time on Ramadan and Eid ul-Fitr, it’s easy to feel like Hajj season just creeps up on us!
This year with Hajj being right in the middle of summer break and with start of school right around the corner, things are getting quite busy. When the kids asked about Hajj and what it means this morning, I realized I need to get started and help them understand the best way I can
Sharing the various resources I’ve been looking for including Hajj lapbooks, coloring pages, story books, movies, audio, and Hajj related activities. Here I’ve listed some to help teach kids about Hajj, the history of the Kaba, and the story of Ibrahim, in sha Allah.
