When your child cries over something "small," shuts down, or lashes out, it's easy to assume they should know how to handle their emotions.
But emotional regulation has to be learned.
Salma's Quest for Pink Stars is a story-led tarbiyah tool that helps Muslim children by following Salma through moments of disappointment and confusion, helping them understand their emotions and act on them in ways that align with the pleasure of Allah.
🔍 INSIDE THE STORY
Seven-year-old Salma has a mission: Fifty good deeds. Fifty pink stars. One pink painting set.
When she travels to Nigeria for Eid for the very first time, she’s ready to shine.
But when her cousin arrives, everything she has worked so hard for suddenly feels out of reach. One difficult moment changes everything, and Salma must face her biggest challenge yet.
In this warm adventure, Salma learns that true rewards aren't about stars on a scoreboard; they are about what is inside the heart.
