My Project

My students love to create their own art and craft activities. They have visions of projects that suit the way they feel. With a selection of materials, children will have a head start of some of their art and craft creations. The clear storage container will help them to see and separate materials. Children will be able to independently put materials in selected containers and place them on the cart, which will make clean-up and storage easier for them. All students will be able to access the cart to their advantage because it is at children's eye level.
