In the modern world, Islamic parenting can be challenging as aggressive games and cartoons threaten to influence the minds of our young ones.

7. Nature Study
Making Islam fun for children initiates from fostering a love for Allah. This can be done by taking a stroll in the park, and making a scrapbook with your child. The scrapbook should include all the beautiful things God has created.
Kids can press leaves or flowers inside, go birdwatching to gather specimens of creepy crawlers, or draw sketches of animals in the scrapbook.
This activity is great for discussing the perfection and purpose of Allah’s creations. Little ones will understand how everything is created, like how bees accumulate nectar from flowers.
8. 99 Names Hunt
Print out Allah’s 99 names and stick them in the garden or home for your children to find. Select places that are neat and make sure none of the names fall on the floor. This can be a regular activity in which the child can concentrate on the names whenever they play.
To make the game a bit tricky for older children, say the English name, and make the child find out the Arabic translation or vice versa. What else is a better way to discuss the amazing attributes of our Creator?
