  • Little Hands Need Pages to Turn

    Funded Oct 28, 2020

    What an exciting day for our Early Head Start classroom. We found our today this project is fully funded thanks to your help! I am so excited to be able to provide my families with colorful Hanson materials as they continue learning from home. Thank you so much for your generosity! We are so grateful to you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Steph

  • STEM From the Very Start!

    Funded Apr 4, 2019

    When my students first saw that we had a new bin of SMART STIX, the look on their faces was amazing! They are so young so I wasn't sure if they would notice that the set we used to have had tripled, but boy was I wrong. They noticed, and they were so excited! Instead of having to use only 4 or so pieces each, they were able to have enough materials to build whatever their little minds desired!

    These materials have given my students the chance to explore how to build and take apart. How to be creative. How to share. And more importantly, they have enjoyed all the moments or learning throughout. Moments of fun and excitement are so crucial to learning.

    We are so thankful to those who contributed to this project. These materials will continue to provide rich learning experiences in my classroom year after year! We have some neighboring classrooms who have also borrowed these materials! Thank you again for reaching so many students with your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

  • Baby Doll Circle Time

    Funded Apr 12, 2019

    When my students first saw the baby dolls, they were so excited! They each got up quickly and rushed to the basket to get a baby. Then they hugged the babies and smiled as they looked at them.

    Since that day and until now, they still love the baby dolls. We sing songs with them, give them baths, and play "I Love You Rituals" with the babies. We have a daily "Baby Dolls Circle Time" with the babies and it is our favorite part of the day.

    We are so appreciative of the generous donors who decided to fund this project for us. We will continue to have wonderful learning experiences with these babies for the remainder of this year and for years to come!”

    With gratitude,

  • A Seat That's Just Right!

    Funded Aug 14, 2019

    We are thrilled that our project was funded! Thank you so much to the amazing people that made this happen for us! Our sweet little ones are going to love having a seat that is just right for them! I can't wait to see all the amazing experiences that happen in these chairs.

    Thank you again!”

Earlier this year, a generous neighbor of mine donated a small starter set of SMARTMAX sticks to my classroom as her children outgrew them. Watching the children in my classroom engage with these materials has been absolutely incredible! They explore, plan, problem solve, investigate, and have so much fun! Unfortunately, the set we have is not enough for the all the learners in my class. I am only able to take these materials out when many children are absent, and even then, the number of items is not enough. We are hoping to have a larger set so all of the children can enjoy and learn!
