Today's mini-lesson
Water is one of Allah's greatest gifts: every plant, animal and person needs it.
When fasting people go all day without a drink, they remember how precious water is.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used only a little water for wudu, so we try not to waste it either.

Tap checker
Practise turning the tap on gently, washing hands, and turning it off tight. Your child is the family's “tap checker” today — they can check every tap after use.
The bowl test
Put a bowl in the sink and let the tap run for ten seconds while you pretend to brush your teeth. Look how much water would have gone down the drain! Use the saved water for a plant.
