My Project

My preschoolers are naturally curious, and always eager to explore the world around them. They ask lots of questions, want to learn new things, and are fascinated by even the smallest details. Their curiosity helps them make connections and develop critical thinking skills. They are often eager to try new activities, explore different subjects, and be part of group discussions. Their excitement is contagious and helps create a lively and dynamic learning environment.

Providing these toy pets for our end of study celebration will give them a great opportunity for hands-on learning.

These toy pets will also help the children understand concepts such as pet care, needs, and how to safely interact with pets. Along with our guest speaker these toy pets will provide a fun and engaging activity during our celebration.
