In this month's ML newspaper: Organizing playtime for Muslim kids

Yet another relevant story from our favourite community paper (see our events section for the precise details):

"Playgroups can be a great
opportunity for pre-schoolers
to meet and play with other
small children and develop their
personal and social skills. But for

ensuring that their little ones have
Muslim playmates is tough. Most
mothers have little choice but to
take to their children to city-funded
playgroups where their children,
sometimes only a few months
old, are exposed to unIslamic
influences.

to change that, however. The
Muslim Link spoke to Hala
Adam, the coordinator of a new
Muslim playgroup at Outaouais
Islamic Centre in Hull. "
