As Seen On

Meet the Noor Kids

Your family will fall in love with Amin, Shireen, Asad, and Amira – our characters.

Amin

The Sports Star! While Amin is brave, his daring ideas sometimes get him into trouble. He loves trying new things – especially when he’s doing it with other people.

Shireen

The Trail-blazer! Shireen is as smart as she is adventurous. Her love for animals and nature takes her to exciting places! She is ready to take on whatever the world throws her way and won’t settle for anything but perfection.

Asad

The Scientist! Don’t let his lion looks fool you, Asad is more interested in a good book than an adventure. He is loving, studious, and moral. He always seems to ask the right questions.

Amira

The Artist! While Amira has a love for calligraphy and photographs, she is also modest and humble. She enjoys working on arts and crafts.

Storytelling

Positive modeling stories that address real-world problems faced by children are a proven medium to teach character, citizenship, and belief. Such stories foster engagement, retention, and identity-development.

Identity Curriculum

Much of a child’s identity is shaped by eight years of age. At this age, key elements of an Islamic identity include: a child’s relationship with himself (character), his community (citizenship), and his Creator (beliefs).

Role Models

What does it mean to be a Muslim in America? Real and imaginary role models who children can relate to demonstrate what it means to be Muslim in America for kids.

Active Parenting

Parents play the single greatest role in a child’s identity development. However, most parents are not equipped to talk with children about faith; tools, such as Noor Kids, allow for this to occur.

Thinking Critically

While traditional education often focuses on teaching what Muslims believe and how they practice, children growing up as a religious minority must understand why. Critical thinking allows children to build belief.

Scholarly Support

Noor Kids has gained support from a host of Islamic scholars, academic leaders, and educational administrators.

Topics Covered in Membership

Each month, Noor Kids publishes a new activity book based on the following themes.

Character
Beliefs
Citizenship

When asked about religion, the Holy Prophet (SAW) famously replies, “I was only sent to perfect moral character.” Today, secular science also shows us that character also serves as the engine through which children build self-esteem.

As Muslims, it is vital to lead within the communities that we live, being champions of social justice. Today, we also know that citizenship education also serves as a tool for 4- to 8- year-olds to develop a sense of belonging.

“Why do we fast?” For children growing up in a non-Muslim environment, understanding the rationale behind key Islamic beliefs allows children to develop confidence in their religious practice.
