Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The "Play Haven" project aims to create a safe, engaging, and stimulating indoor play area for children, providing them with a space to play and learn when weather conditions outside are not conducive to outdoor activities.

The indoor play area will be designed to accommodate preschool children with a variety of interests, promoting physical activity, creativity, and social interaction, regardless of the weather.

The space will provide a safe environment, foster creativity and social interaction, as well as encourage physical activity all year round. The play area will feature bright, cheerful colors that stimulate creativity and energy, while also incorporating calming elements like the sensory tunnel and sensory peapod.
