My Project

The best way for young children to learn social skills and play skills is to give them lots and lots of opportunities to play! The more play the better, especially for little ones with disabilities that impact their social and play skills.

Toys like pretend food, and a school bus to be filled with toy people, and animals, will help some very exceptional and amazing kids learn to take turns, use their imaginations and engage with others!

Play is the highest form of learning and I want to make sure that my students have all the opportunities in the world to gain these skills!
