My Project

Help me welcome back students with a new carpet to sit and learn on this school year. No more sitting on the floor or looking for an extra chair.

This rug is a multi-tasker, providing a place to sit, but has feelings illustrations from A-Z.

This interactive children’s rug is truly a multi-functional tool to help improve relationships by teaching communication skills, feelings, awareness, and self-expression. It also enhances character-building, vocabulary, and self-esteem. This rug is more than just decor; it's a tool for emotional learning and understanding. The ABC Feelings Area Rug will invite my young students to explore, learn, and play in a space where every letter is a steppingstone to emotional intelligence.
