Muharram Children's Activities

Salam Alaykum!

I apologize for being so MIA and not updating the blog! I have many great activities to post, inshAllah, but with Muharram coming up, I wanted to first share activities for Muharram. At our Masjid (SABA), we have special children's programs for the first 10 days of the month. Boys and girls are in separate rooms where they each listen to a short speech, and then complete Muharram-themed crafts.

The children thoroughly enjoyed these programs last year and learned a lot! It was a great way for them to connect with the events of Karbala and learn relevant lessons at the same time. If you would like to do similar programs at your Masjid, our lesson plans for this year and last year can be found at the links below. Please visit and pass it along to other Masaajid that you feel may benefit from these lessons. Please share your feedback and send pictures if you do decide to use any of the activities!
