My Project

As we have crossed over into the last half of the school year, needs and wants for the classroom have come up. Items such as hair ties for when children want their hair pulled back out of their face, wobble cushions for getting wiggles out, storage organizers to use with our classroom learning games.

The kiddos have expressed these needs and wants throughout the school year thus far and I wanted to help grant those askes.

Something else I have on our list are craft supplies to make gifts for our parents.

We would love for you to help us with our everyday needs and wants!
