What is Eid al-Fitr?
Eid al-Fitr is a religious holiday that occurs at the end of Ramadan. The meaning of Eid al-Fitr, translated from Arabic, means ‘the feast of the breaking of the fast’. Eid al-Fitr officially begins once the religious authorities have confirmed the sighting of the new moon. Approximately 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide will mark Eid as the sun sets and the moon rises on the last day of Ramadan.
Our children were busy learning about Eid by looking at pictures and reading books. We got an idea of what celebrating Eid looks like. Preschool said “wow so much family” and “so much food”.
The children showed a lot of interest in the religion of Islam.
We are so proud of the diversity in Monkey Puzzle and respect all beliefs and religions equally.
Eid Mubarak to all of our friends and families who are busy celebrating!
