My Project

Our preschool classroom is working hard to create a space where every child can learn and grow. To better support all our students, we are asking for donations to help buy a light table and sensory bin.

The light table is a special tool that lights up and allows children to explore colors, shapes, and textures.

It helps kids develop fine motor skills and creativity while providing a calm, soothing space for children who need extra sensory support. The light table will also help children focus and regulate their emotions in a fun and engaging way.

The sensory bin is another tool that encourages hands-on learning by giving children the chance to explore different textures and objects. It helps kids develop important skills like problem-solving, communication, and working together. The sensory bin will also be useful for students who need help with sensory processing or motor skills.

These two tools will help us meet the needs of all our students. By adding the light table and sensory bin to our classroom, we can offer more ways for children to learn through touch, sight, and play.

We believe every child deserves a classroom that supports their unique learning needs. Your donation will help create a welcoming, sensory-friendly space where every child can thrive and enjoy learning. Thank you for your support!
