My Project

What a great way to welcome in the Lunar New Year by adding to our little class family, with two adorable guinea pigs! Growing our family on such a special occasion is a great idea.

Please help us welcome the Lunar New Year and our new pets by getting all these supplies to make sure our new guinea pigs are happy and healthy living in our classroom.

We have thought of everything from safe accessories so that our little ones can hold our piggies, to food and hay, to toys and hygiene products for the girls(our pigs), We can't wait to welcome these little girl pigs and welcome the Lunar New Year at the same time, a fresh beginning is a great start to growing our students responsibilities and ownership of these two lucky ladies. Thank you for your help!
