Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Have you ever held on to a toy so tightly that you didn't want anyone else to touch it? How did the other person feel?"

Watch the National Geographic video of acorn woodpeckers guarding the thousands of acorns they've stored in a tree.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What does this ayah say people love very strongly?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "When does loving my things become too much?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-'Adiyat is surah 100. Find ayah 8. Which word in the translation shows how strong the love is?

Fact: How many acorns can a family of acorn woodpeckers store in one tree?

Ages 5–8: Share box. Choose three toys you're happy to share with a sibling or friend for a week. How does it feel?

Ages 9–12: Make a pie chart of where your pocket money (or birthday money) went last time. How much was for you, and how much for others?

Finish with: "I found that I shared ___ out of ___."

Talk together:

• Where did the things in your room first come from?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Why can loving money too much make people unkind?
• How can we enjoy our things and still share them?
• What do you think the woodpeckers would do if they had more acorns than they could ever eat?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will share ___ with ___."

• Share something every day this week, and see how many smiles you collect.
• Give something you love to someone who needs it, with your parents' permission.
• Next time: the next ayah (100:9) asks if people know what will happen one day. Explore it together, gently.

Action: Tell someone at home about the acorn woodpeckers.
