What is From Head to Toe about?
From Head to Toe is an Islamic animated video for children aged 4 to 9 about how Allah loves each of us, inside and out, and always will.
It is a picture book brought to life, with one short line on each page and a little boy who acts out every word. Allah loves me outside and in, it begins: my eyes, ears, nose and chin, my fingers, toes, knees and elbows. Then it goes deeper. Allah loves my soul and my heart, every part of me.
Next, it turns to feelings. Allah loves me when I'm happy and when I'm sad, and even when I'm acting silly or mad. On that page, the boy has tangled himself up in a bandage, with his teddy bear beside him. Allah loves me for me, from beginning to end and everything in between. Wherever I go, and however big I grow, Allah will always love me, from head to toe. The boy stands against a height chart as he says it.
At just over a minute, it is one of the shortest titles in the library, gentle enough for the youngest children and easy to watch again and again. The warm, soft pictures and the rhythm of the words make it a good fit for bedtime.
It gives children a simple, reassuring message to hold on to: Allah's care for them is there on good days and hard ones, and it does not stop as they grow up. The video is also a picture book in the Miraj library.
