Ideal for Preschool, Nursery, School, or for Parents and Childminders at home, these vertical card templates can be used as part of a focused adult-led activity to introduce concepts, or left out as a more child-led invitation to play and explore.

This fantastic FREE pack features a selection of Ramadan-themed card templates, including:

• A variety of images: The cards feature iconic symbols of Ramadan, such as a beautiful mosque, a moon and star, and lanterns.

• Pre-written greetings: The cards include text like 'Ramadan Mubarak!' (meaning 'Blessed Ramadan') and 'Happy Ramadan', providing a lovely and educational starting point for children.

(Note: Please use your own discretion and knowledge of your children to ensure appropriateness of each activity suggested on this page and safety concerning any materials given and activity undertaken.)

• 💡 How to use this resource in your classroom/setting

  Our FREE Ramadan: Greeting Card Templates are incredibly versatile and can be used in a multitude of ways across various early years and KS1 environments:

  • Focused Adult-Led Activity: Use a specific card template as a starting point for a discussion. For example, use the mosque card to talk about what a mosque is and its importance to Muslims. Use the 'Ramadan Mubarak!' card to teach children the greeting and its meaning.

  • Child-Led Invitation to Play: Leave a selection of the templates and various colouring tools (crayons, pencils, felt-tips) in a continuous provision area. This allows children to choose a card that interests them and explore the theme at their own pace.

  • Fine Motor Skills Development: The act of carefully colouring within the lines helps to strengthen hand muscles, improve pencil grip, and enhance hand-eye coordination.

  • Vocabulary Building: As children colour, an adult can use the opportunity to introduce and repeat new vocabulary related to Ramadan.

  • Literacy Connection: The pre-written greetings on the cards offer exposure to sight words and meaningful text, aiding early literacy development. Children can also be encouraged to write their own name or a simple message inside.

  • Gift-Giving & Appreciation: The finished cards make wonderful, heartfelt gifts for children to give to family and friends who are celebrating Ramadan, or to simply share in the spirit of kindness.

• 🎯 Learning objectives covered - 🐣 EYFS Framework

  EYFS Framework:

  • Expressive Arts and Design: Children explore and use a range of media and materials, developing their own ideas and expressing creativity through colouring and decorating their cards.

  • Physical Development (Fine Motor Skills): Colouring and drawing on the cards helps to develop precise hand movements, strengthen pencil grip, and enhance hand-eye coordination.

  • Communication and Language (Speaking; Listening, Attention & Understanding): Children listen to new vocabulary and phrases, engage in discussions about the symbols, and articulate their thoughts.

  • Understanding the World (People, Culture & Communities): Children learn about a different faith and cultural festival, broadening their understanding of the world.

• 🎯 Learning objectives covered - 🐤 KS1 Curriculum

  KS1 Curriculum:

  • Art and Design: Children use drawing to develop and share their ideas and experiences. They can explore colour and line to bring the images to life.

  • Religious Education / Understanding the World: Children learn about a significant Islamic festival and its customs and symbols.

  • English (Reading; Writing - indirectly): Exposure to the greetings helps with word recognition. Writing their own name or message provides a meaningful context for writing.
