My Project

Little people often have big feelings, especially students in PreK-3. The Calm Down Center is an essential component of every Pre-K classroom. Students need sensory stimulation and stuffies to cuddle with while they work through those emotional moments!

I want my students to feel safe and stimulated while they engage in social-emotional learning as they calm down.

Having an outlet to redirect that energy benefits the students and reduces the disruption to instruction that is often a result of big feelings.

Please support my all-girl PreK-3 students as they embark on their very first year of school!
