Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What do you truly need, and what do you just want?"

Watch the BuzzWithBee video Needs and Wants for Kids.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Why was this man so proud?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why does having lots of things make some people proud?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Qalam is surah 68. Find ayah 14. The key words dha malin wa banin mean owner of wealth and sons. He thought money and a big family made him better than others. But wealth and family are gifts from Allah, not reasons to look down on anyone.

Fact: What are the basic needs every person has?

Ages 5–8: Needs and wants sort. Cut out pictures and sort them into needs and wants.

Ages 9–12: Gift list. List five blessings you have and who gave each one.

Finish with: "I found that basic needs are ___."

Talk together:

• Why should blessings make us humble, not proud?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How can we share our blessings?
• How should we treat people with less?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will share something I have with someone else."

• Share something you have.
• Do the needs and wants sort.
• Share your gift list.
• Next time: the next ayah (68:15) says he called Allah's signs old stories. Explore it together!

Action: Share something you have with someone else.
