there are some pre requisites to have ur child to hifz the Quran
firstly , parents must recite the quran with proper tajweed in front of the child everyday at an alloted time.
secondly , we parents must eradicate all kind of distractions from a child's life so that she / he can feel ALlah's love in their hearts right after the birth.
thirdly , talk to ur child about true stories of Quran and Seerah instead of fictional stories ( fairy tales)
fourthly , try not to hear them any music from anywhere because in a human heart music and Quran cannot go in one time. either musical tones or the Quran.
fifthly , repetition is the mother of skill as u know........if u want her or him to hifz Quran , plan for urself also . she ll love it in learning as she will see her parents are also taking interest in Quran , The Book Of Allah.
Play a cd of audio of recitations in ur car while driving even if u are going for grocery.
When you are at home , then frequently listen to www.tanzil.net
While learning Quran , tell the meanings too at the kids level.
Do revision daily of the previous surahs. ( murajaah)
Plus homeschooling sisters , reply to this post if u have more ideas for other newbie homeschooling mothers.
I do implement the above ideas with my girl and alhamdulillah we are observing changes in her. MashAllah and summa alhamdulAllah .
hope this helps!
Happy learning Quran! :-)
