Country of the Month - Pakistan (12 th - 16 th May) Our Country of the Month ties in beautifully with our Eid Celebrations. Eid al-Fitr, also called the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", is a religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide and marks the end of the month-long dawn-to-sunset fasting of Ramadan. The children will have the opportunity to learn about the country of Pakistan, as well as their customs and traditions. Did you know? The name Pakistan, Pak (pure) and stan (land) means ‘land of the pure’ in the Persian and Urdu languages.
