Marbles

I was cleaning the kitchen so i sent the boys down to play in the basement. They made their own game using an empty box, strip of paper and marbles. Summaiya and i came to spectate.... Mashallah i love when they use their imagination and invent their own games :)

Build a Mesjid

The boys got this for an Eid gift and we really enjoy it. Its a cute but simple game that even Ibby is able to play.  You pick up cards while trying to collect the most coins.  There are also mesjid piecea in the pile of cards and youre supposed to ty to collect your coins before the mesjid is built.  The coin cards have different amounts of coins so that players practice math skills by adding the coins. Smark Ark makes this game and you can find it at sound vision or online.

Whats missing?

We did this game in Preschool time last week and Yusuf LOVES it! Basically you put a bunch of random objects on a tray, then the child closes his eyes and then you remove something and then he guess whats missing. Its simple, fun, and improves your memory (something I could use!)
