My Project

The children really enjoy painting and using Play-Doh to create their own things.

These art items are needed since our children don't have a lot of art materials.

We need an easel and paper for the children to do various activities. It will keep the material organized so that the children can select their own items. My students are so excited to paint. They all want to do it! My children don't get the opportunity to paint at home, so the classroom is the place for them to be creative and explore.
