My Project

My students love to explore and play at our sand and water table. They scoop, pour, pound, and mold sand. They LOVE carrying pails and cups of water to add to the dry sand to explore the change. My preschoolers enjoy creating cakes and castles. Often you'll see them adding a plastic letter and number shells to decorate the tops of their creations. Over the course of the school year, we've lost a lot of sand.

We need to replenish our sand supply to continue learning!

Having a variety of sand throughout the year will give my students the materials they need to explore the different textures while being creative in their play. We have measuring cups, spoons, scoops, and shovels- we need SAND!

The water whisks and bubbles kit will add a new dimension to their water play. Thank you for your consideration.
