Fun and Meaningful Ramadan Activities for Kids 

  Publications     Ramadan

Ramadan is a special time for reflection, worship, and kindness. A month that can also be fun, engaging, and educational for kids!  

Encouraging children to participate in Ramadan-related activities helps them develop a love for the month while learning its values.  

From creative crafts to interactive learning, there are many different types of activities that can keep the kids engaged during this blessed month.  

Here are some fun and meaningful ways to do so—with help from the Ramadan Kids’ Activity Booklet!

Track Fasting with a Fun Fasting Chart 

With their growing minds and bodies, fasting is a big achievement for kids!  

Even if they’re trying half-day fasts, each day they try helps them immensely. Not only to prepare them for a full month of fasting when they’re older, but it also allows them to appreciate the blessings Allah (SWT) brings them every day.  

You can help keep track of their progress with a Fasting Chart (such as the one from the booklet below). Kids can circle, colour in, or tick a section of the chart with each day they try to fast.

To make it more exciting for kids, add a small reward system. By stickers or special treats for completing multiple fasts. This encourages them to stay motivated and build a connection with Ramadan. 

Learn and Practice Sunnahs Every Day 

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us many beautiful daily habits, and Ramadan is the perfect time for kids to learn them.  

Some simple Sunnahs kids can practice include: 

  • Saying Bismillah before eating
  • Drinking in three sips while sitting
  • Sleeping on their right side
  • Helping family members with chores
 

Each day, they can try a new Sunnah and mark it in a journal (like the activity booklet). This turns learning into a fun and rewarding experience! 

Build a Sadaqah Box and Give to Charity 

Teaching kids about charity from a young age helps develop kindness and generosity. To help motivate your kids to collect money for charity, help them make their own Sadaqah Box! 

 If you don’t know where to start, you can download the Kids’ Activity Book to access a sadaqah box template or decorate an empty tissue box.  

Throughout Ramadan, your kids can add small donations each day. By Eid, they can give the collected amount to those in need. 

Solve Ramadan-Themed Puzzles and Word Games 

Kids love challenges, and crossword puzzles, word searches, and spot-the-difference games based on Ramadan themes can be the perfect way to keep them engaged while learning key Islamic concepts.  

For example, within the Ramadan Kids’ Activity Book, the Ramadan Crossword teaches words like fasting, Quran, and Eid, while the word search encourages kids to find meaningful Ramadan-related words. These are great for quiet moments, especially before iftar or after Taraweeh.

Get Creative with Islamic Colouring Pages 

Kids can learn about the importance of these significant symbols in Islam while colouring, making it a great educational and creative activity.  

The “Make It Beautiful” section of the Kids’ Activity booklet features colouring pages of Masjid Al-Haram, Masjid An-Nabawi, and Masjid Al-Aqsa. As your children colour, you can discuss the significance of these holy places in Islam.  

Visit the Mosque and Find Your Way 

Taking kids to the mosque, especially during Ramadan, helps them experience the beauty of community prayers.  

The Ramadan Kids’ Activity Booklet includes a “Find Your Way to the Mosque” maze, where kids navigate a path while avoiding distractions. 

This activity teaches an important lesson—staying focused on worship during Ramadan. You can also use this as a conversation starter about the importance of prayer and attending the mosque. 

Prepare for Eid with DIY Crafts 

As Ramadan comes to an end, the time for Eid celebrations begins! A good way to get kids excited for the big day is with Eid decorations.  

Whether you buy some or make your own, having decorations for Eid al-Fitr encourages an environment that shares happiness and blessings with others. 

The Ramadan Kids Activity Booklet includes DIY lanterns and Eid cards kids can cut out, colour and give to their loved ones, making this Eid extra special.  

Enjoy a Fun Ramadan with Your Children

Ramadan is a time for kids to learn, grow, and engage in fun activities that strengthen their faith and character. 

With this love and appreciation for Ramadan that they carry on as they get older, it’ll be something they can pass on to the next generation too, creating a beautiful cycle. 

The Ramadan Activity Booklet is one of the many amazing ways to keep your kids engaged and motivated to learn about Islam.  

Encourage your kids to complete the activities in the booklet and make this Ramadan a memorable one!
