My Project

It is officially cold and flu season and my classroom is in great need of disinfecting wipes. Disinfecting wipes are essential for our preschool classroom for several reasons. We are noticing that children's blankets are being sent home and coming back unwashed on Monday. We would love to be able to help the parents by washing their blankets at school every Friday eliminating germs from coming and going. Paper towels help clean up quick messes and Kleenex tissues are softer on the nose!

Second, disinfecting wipes are convenient and easy to use, allowing for quick clean-ups that don't disrupt class activities.

Finally, maintaining a clean and hygienic environment helps create a safe and healthy space for learning, ensuring that both students and teachers can focus on educational activities without worrying about the spread of germs.
