The month of Ramadan presents a valuable opportunity to strengthen family bonds and instill positive values in children within an atmosphere of warmth and closeness. With 2026 designated as the Year of Family, the call is renewed to dedicate meaningful time that brings family members together, helping to create shared memories that support family stability and nurture a spirit of love and cooperation across generations.

Engaging children in interactive Ramadan activities not only enriches their knowledge but also deepens their sense of belonging within the family. It instills the values of giving, gratitude, and teamwork in a way that is both enjoyable and meaningful.
