My Project

Floor seats, fidget bands for chairs, kid timers, and charming monkey letters are indispensable tools for kindergarteners, enhancing their learning environment and overall development. Floor seats provide a flexible seating option, allowing students to comfortably engage in various activities fostering a dynamic and interactive learning space. Fidget bands for chairs offer a discreet outlet for restless energy, promoting better focus and concentration during lessons. Kid-timers instill a sense of time management and routine, aiding in transitions between activities and promoting a structured classroom environment. With their playful design, charming monkey letters serve as valuable educational tools, making language acquisition and letter recognition enjoyable for young learners. Together, these resources contribute to a holistic and engaging kindergarten experience, addressing the students' physical and cognitive needs.
