My Project

Help grow our classroom library! Cloth books are a wonderful way to encourage my preschoolers to explore books.

These books will help me provide opportunities to engage my students in foundational literacy activities.

Cloth books promote language development, curiosity, self-discovery, and fine motor skills. These books have soft textures, crinkles, and some make sounds! Your donation will help keep the enthusiasm for reading growing by giving my preschoolers daily access to books that encourage touching, pointing, and language development.

This project is a wonderful way for you to spark, encourage, and grow the love of reading in an awesome group of preschoolers.

Thank you for your consideration.
