My Project

Sometimes kids have to wait in the nurses office for different reasons. Some are sick, some are not able to go out for recess, and others just need a little break.

Kids need something to occupy their minds while waiting for a parent.

I recently discovered that my book collection is not very good.

My goal is to replace the books I have available for the students waiting for different reasons and also have some fun books and toys to read to the classes to help them get to know the school nurse better.
