Muslim children are not required to fast for Ramadan until they reach the age of maturity (puberty). At that time they are responsible for their decisions and are considered adults in terms of meeting religious obligations. Schools and other programs that include children may find that some children choose to fast, while others do not. It is advised to follow the child's lead and not force an action one way or the other.

Younger Children  All Muslims worldwide fast at the same time each year. Family schedules and meal times are adjusted during the month, and more time is spent in community gatherings, family visits, and in prayer at the mosque. Even younger children will be part of the observance because Ramadan is an event that involves all members of the community.

In many families, younger children do enjoy participating in the fast and are encouraged to practice their fasting in a way that is appropriate for their age. It is common for a younger child to fast for part of a day, for example, or for one day on the weekend. This way, they enjoy the "grown-up" feeling that they are participating in the special events of the family and community, and also become accustomed to the full fasting they will one day practice. It is unusual for young children to fast for more than a couple of hours (for example, until noon), but some older children may push themselves to try longer hours. This is largely left up to the child, though; children are not pressured in any way.

At School Many younger Muslim children (under the age of 10 or so) will not fast during the school day, but some children may express a preference to try. In non-Muslim countries, there is no expectation of elaborate accommodation for students who are fasting. On the contrary, it is understood that one may face temptations during fasting, and one is responsible only for his or her actions. But fasting students will appreciate the offer of a quiet space during lunchtime (at the library or in a classroom, for example) to be away from those who are eating or special consideration during P.E. lessons.
