Storytelling this Saturday, August 22, 2009!

Assalamualaikum FKAD Moms:

I can't wait to meet everyone this Saturday! I get to see the kids again and see them have fun with other kids. We anticipate more people will show up and insha Allah we're going to held the event at the Noor Lecture Hall instead of the classroom. Since this Saturday could be the first day of Ramadhan, the FKAD Cafe will be closed. However, kids who are not fasting are welcome to enjoy their food after the event. Ramadhan! Can you believe it? I feel so blessed to get to experience another Ramadhan, especially now when we have our Saturday routine to prepare for the storytelling. Not only it gives my family an opportunity to do an activity which we can do together as a family, but also do something "good" and very rewarding. I always try to find a fun activity where we can enjoy in an Islamic environment. Alhamdulillah we have found one. Insha Allah I want all moms and dads to feel the same way when they go to the Foundation. The Usrah program which we just created will be focused on just that, family-friendly program in a Islamic and family-friendly environment. There are so many unIslamic things out there that our kids are exposed to, maybe now we finally can have something to balance it out by learning Islamic values in a fun and safe environment. If kids can learn Islam while having fun, why not make one?

Hey moms (and dads, of course), let's hear your thoughts! Help us create a program that will suit you and your kids. What kind of family-friendly program would you like to see?
