Dhul Hijjah Inspired Crafts and Activities for Your Little Ones

by in Culture & Lifestyle on 15th August, 2018

The second Eid seems to be the Eid where we all seem to forget and it surprises us but since having kids I have been encouraged to look into Dhul Hijah more and it’s the Eid that has some of the most exciting crafts for kids.

Arts and crafts as well as story telling are some of the best ways to get children involved and aware of what the ‘second Eid’ is about. We’ve shortlisted some of our favourite crafts and resources for parents, teachers and loved ones.

We love that it could be used again and again through the year.
