My Project

Our students learn through play and one of their favorite centers is our kitchen. Sadly our kitchen is old, broken and dated. The doors are broken and we do our best to repair them to keep little fingers from getting caught in the hinges. We would love to include multicultural foods and ways of “cooking” them so that all of our students have familiar foods to “cook” like they have at home. The happiness that kitchen play brings our students is amazing. They become family while in there. There’s moms, dads, kids and pets too!
