Guest Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Evening all, I've just hit a stumbling block with planning Eid activites for next week, I have the usual prayer mat, mendhi hands, stars and moons, even going to try baking- either sweets or biscuits. What I would like to do is give the children the opportunity to try writing in arabic, by tracing over a font, however I'm totally confused by the amount of fonts you can download. Does anyone have any idea which one I should/could be using. Or indeed if there are any new Eid ideas out there. Thanks in advance XX
AnonyMouse_1027 Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 im afraid i had the same problem trying to download hindu fonts for college..ended up asking a collegue who knew a hindu person to do it for me....
AnonyMouse_1195 Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Just to say that Eid was last week on Monday or Tuesday depending on when the family started. Not really sure about where to find arabic fonts. There was a site where you could change names into Arabic but I can't remember where. Someone on here will know.
Guest Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Here is one site with various text examples, lots of hits come up for 'arabic font' searches http://www.sakkal.com/Graphics/Eid_Cards_Custom.html
Guest Posted November 1, 2006 Posted November 1, 2006 Thanks all for your help. Unfortunately our celebrations topic starts this week with Diwali, next week Eid - so it doesn't tie in with timing, but at least we can draw on experiences the children will have had!!
