Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My kids love exploring and trying new things. They especially love science and experiments. These supplies will help my kids learn more about science, bugs, weather and so much more. Sometimes it is hard for us to get outside and see real-life experiences, so these materials will bring science into the classroom for the kids to try new things! I love science, and I think that kids this age should be exposed to more STEM experiences, most importantly science, while they are still little! Thank you so much for your help in advance!
