There are several useful pieces of advice that can motivate children to want to fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It may feel difficult for children to start practicing fasting.

This makes it a little difficult to stay motivated because their bodies feel weak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, once they get used to it, children will gradually reap the blessings of fasting.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/tips-agar-anak-mau-berpuasa-1024x682.webp\" alt=\"anak mau berpuasa\" class=\"wp-image-2386\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:contain\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/tips-agar-anak-mau-berpuasa-1024x682.webp 1024w, https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/tips-agar-anak-mau-berpuasa-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/tips-agar-anak-mau-berpuasa-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/tips-agar-anak-mau-berpuasa.webp 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.6px;\">\u00a9<\/span> pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div role=\"navigation\" aria-label=\"Table of Contents\" class=\"simpletoc wp-block-simpletoc-toc\"><h4 class=\"simpletoc-title\">Table of content<\/h4>\n<style>html { scroll-behavior: smooth; }<\/style><ul class=\"simpletoc-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#0-yuk-cari-tahu-tips-menarik-agar-anak-semangat-puasa-\">Here are 7 Interesting Tips to Get Your Child to Fast<\/a>\n\n\n<ul><li>\n<a href=\"#1-nasehati-dengan-lemah-lembut\">1.

Let&#8217;s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-nasehati-dengan-lemah-lembut\">1. Advise gently<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>First of all, make sure you maintain a calm tone of voice when giving advice. This is because children may feel pressured if they receive advice in a tone that sounds angry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They will feel forced, so fasting may only be done when you remind them.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-pastikan-memberikan-opsi-pada-anak\">2. Make sure to give your child options<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If your child does not fully understand fasting, make sure to explain it to them first. For example, for children who are only 4 or 5 years old. After explaining it to them, you can also give your child options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do they want to learn to fast for half a day or until sunset? You can adjust the time according to your child&#8217;s abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-buat-rencana-dengan-anak-untuk-mengisi-waktu-selama-puasa\">3. Make Plans with Your Children to Fill Their Time During Fasting<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Children usually enjoy offers of fun activities. So, you can also use this as advice for your children to encourage them to fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A simple example is inviting them to hang out and buy takjil (food to break the fast) at the market if they successfully fast. You can also make storytelling activities during the day so that children can fast more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-beri-tahu-hal-hal-menyenangkan-saat-bulan-puasa\">4. Share Fun Things to Do During Ramadan<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Advising Muslims who have reached puberty about their obligation to fast does not always have to be done directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you can also wrap up your advice with information about the joys of fasting. For example, eating at dawn feels lively because of the children playing drums, and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"5-buat-janji-untuk-setiap-puasa-yang-berhasil-dilakukan\">5. Make a Promise for Every Successful Fast<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>You can also indirectly encourage your child to fast by making a promise for every successful fast until completion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can give them a reward in the form of their favorite food for breaking the fast. In addition, you can give them a gift on Eid al-Fitr.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-ajak-anak-membaca-atau-menonton-kartun-islami\">6. Encourage Children to Read or Watch Islamic Cartoons<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Before entering the fasting month, advice to encourage children to be enthusiastic about fasting can also be found in educational books or shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through these small things, children will begin to feel excited and inspired by enjoyable shows as they welcome Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\"><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/islamofobia-pada-anak\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/anak-berpuasa-melatih-mental\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/vivalakidsworld.com\/parents\/anak-berpuasa-melatih-mental\/\">Teach Children to Fast to Develop Mental Strength<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"7-jadikan-temannya-yang-sudah-berpuasa-sebagai-role-model\">7. Make Your Friends Who Are Fasting Your Role Models<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Another tip for encouraging children to fast is to set an example. Children are usually more enthusiastic about fasting when their friends are doing the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use their friends who have already learned to fast as role models to encourage them to be enthusiastic about fasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are alternative tips to encourage children to be enthusiastic about fasting without forcing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When applying the above tips, be sure to adjust them to your child&#8217;s age. If they are over 9 years old, you can be more assertive in giving advice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children Want to Fast with Warm Advice from Parents &#8211; As Muslims, fasting is an obligation.
