Raising our children with His Blessings...

Sometimes  I get to hear from some ignorant people who think home education is illegal! Subhanallah we can be so ignorant :-( Most of the people think, schooling is compulsory. Actually since the birth of a baby, some well-wishers would recommend putting the baby's name for the nursery! Rushing to send the kids to nursery or any other education institute is seen as a norm :-( I try to ignore all the 'recommendations' and try to avoid even answering as I believe , Allah subhana wa ta'ala knows our intention. I don't need to justify to anyone why we have chosen to home educate our precious children.  Alhamdulillah the more I read about home education or home schooling , I believe we are doing the best for our children alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah in the UK, home education is legal :-) Unfortunately many people in the UK do not realise that British home education (known as 'homeschooling' in the USA) is legal, and becoming more popular all the time alhamdu...

 Okay now a bit of description.. Kids are mum and dad here, got their babies ( Peppa, Iggle Piggle, Hannah, Upsy Daisy and Hello Kitty) ready to go to Westfield!  Ifti tried to get into the baby chair to pretend that he is the baby Eesa and got stuck. Just to make it a bit more fun, I told him, you got yourself in it so you better get yourself out of the baby chair. Poor boy got really scared thinking the rest of his life he will be stuck in that chair :-( what an evil mum I am ;-) Their first musical chair game :-)   Aalia trying to write with her toes :-) she is always upto something different! My one of a kind daughter mashAllah! Ifti is obsessed with McQueen! Whenever he gets a chance, he will take a photo of his beloved friend! Apparently, McQueen is a good Muslim, he prays and says Allahu Akbar :-)

This Summer I took Ifti to the nursery and Aalia & Eesa to the Children Centre. Most of the times after the sessions, we went to the park. I think we really enjoyed the summer of this year, alhamdulillah.

Alhamdulillah we have been to Hastings. Kids really enjoyed their time. Aalia is having a bit of 'me' time. She does do it quite frequently. I think she is a bit of a deep thinker :-) and Ifti just like most of the boys loves his interesting actions !

Most of the time Ifti, Aalia and Eesa are busy playing. Sometimes just watching them playing is really amazing mashAllah. They learn so much through playing. Once Ifti and Aaila was getting married ;-) didn't really want to spoil their fun so just kept quite and afterwards explained to them that brother and sister can't get married to each other :-) Anyway, they got dressed properly and sat together, after a while hugged and kissed each other. I asked them how are they feeling and Aalia told me that she is really very very happy :-D I took some photos of this great day! Here is one of them:-) Ifti loves being quite a caring dad to Iggle Piggle :-) He has been his favourite since his 2nd birthday. It is a precious gift from one of his beloved uncles. He loves cuddling Iggle Piggle during bedtime. Helping me and Yobo with household chores is also a great fun for them. I hope they will keep helping us when they are teenagers InshAllah.    They even try to pus...
