Advice for Children to Benefit from the Summer Vacation

Parents should urge their children to memorize quraan during the summer vacation and encourage them by all means, even by giving them a monetary reward for every chapter of the quraan or hadith memorized!. and of course there is a great reward from Allah for doing that.

1. During the summer vacation, our children's time is wasted in doing nothing, and we don't usually give them enough attention in this part of the year.

Most of the parents think that they have fulfilled their duty towards their kids, just by going on a trip with them. They never think about arranging a special program for this trip, like arranging some contests, and games, or helping them to practice any other activity.

It will be better If every family gathered the kids in some place, where the grown ups share in watching and guiding them to do these things. It won't cost them anything if they cooperated and shared these times with their kids. Kids shouldn't be left alone without anyone to watch for them. And it will be much better, if all the parents in the same neighborhood arrange a certain program for their kids in any close park or lounge, where they can hire someone to look after the kids. These kinds of arrangements will sure protect the children from being out in the streets, and is the best way to benefit from their leisure time.

2. Unfortunately some youth never think about advising their own families and relatives, or guiding them to the good deeds! it will be a very good thing, if every young man or girl, gather his or her family and relatives in any place, a lounge or a summer camp, for several nights or even for one night, and arrange some programs, contests and games, through which he can give the advice, or distribute recorded lectures or articles.

Many people have already tried doing this and it was a great benefit for every one. Try doing that, and it will give you many rewards inshaa Allah, for reaching the next of kin, spreading good deeds, and da'wa to Almighty Allah.
