In this special episode, I had the honor of diving into three topics that are incredibly close to my heart:
✅ My Arabic language journey—what it really felt like to reconnect with my mother tongue while raising bilingual children.
✅ How Montessori principles beautifully align with Islamic values, offering a holistic approach to parenting and education.
✅ Practical insights from my life as a bilingual Montessori mama and founder of Childaura, raising my own two children in a nurturing, faith-centered home.

🌿 What We Talked About

We explored how language is more than communication—it’s a bridge to culture, identity, and connection.
I opened up about:
✨ The surprising revelations I faced on my personal Arabic journey.
✨ How my husband and I navigate raising bilingual children in our home—balancing Egyptian Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic, and English!
✨ The deep harmony between Montessori philosophy and Islamic teachings, and how both inspire me to cultivate independence, respect, and purpose in my children’s lives.

🤲 Why This Conversation Matters

As Muslim parents raising the next generation, we carry the beautiful (and sometimes heavy) responsibility of nurturing not just our children’s minds, but also their hearts and souls.
This conversation shines a light on how Montessori and Islamic values can work hand-in-hand to create a home where children feel seen, heard, and deeply rooted in their faith.
