Not only adults but also children who have reached puberty practice fasting in this month. Unlike the adults, the children who have not reached puberty can fast half day if they can't finish their full day. However, once puberty starts the young adult should fast all month same as adults do from dawn to sun set. Afur is Somali term of breakfast and it is an important time that all family members sit and eat together to break the fast. This happens at sunset every day of Ramadan.
Children are very happy because they eat with their family and play around with other kids.
Kids like to play outside with other kids while their families are breaking the fast although the weather in the USA has its own count. Somalis eat special food at breakfast time such as date, Bur and Sambusi, which is Somali food. After the breakfast, people go to the mosque or prayer place for Tarawih. Tarawih is the prayer that takes place every night of Ramadan after the breakfast. All family members can participate this Tarawih gathering regardless of their ages, genders.
