For grown-ups
- Hang it by your prayer space at home or in the children's corner of the masjid, so your child can glance at it between positions.
- Learn one position a week: say the words together, then let your child show you the position.
- Pray side by side and point to each step number as you go; children learn salah by copying you.
- The poster shows only the start of Al-Fatihah and the tashahhud, so teach the full words as your child is ready. Small details differ between schools of thought; follow your teacher.
- Print at 100% ("actual size") on thick paper, or laminate it for a busy wall. For a big classroom or masjid poster, use the 18 × 24 in PDF at a print shop.
