My Project

The items I am requesting are flexible seating options, a butterfly farm, and toys to support the learning and development of my special needs students. These toys are more than just playthings; they are vital educational tools that help improve fine motor skills, encourage sensory exploration, and promote social interaction. Many of these specialized toys are designed to meet the unique needs of students with sensory or developmental challenges, making them an essential part of their growth.

These donations will allow my special needs students to have the opportunity to interact with one another and participate in parallel play.

This will allow them to interact socially and become familiar with sharing and understanding basic rules.

Donations for toys also allow you to create a joyful, engaging classroom environment where students feel safe and motivated to explore, learn, and connect.
