Sensory Corner

Help me give my students a sensory swing to calm them when they become overstimulated and a bean bag chair to comfort. The gel tiles and aquarium also soothe them.

My Project

Our classroom is small, but has huge heart! They will capture yours from the minute you meet them. Each child is unique and has special gifts and needs. Sometimes we become overwhelmed and need a soothing swing or comfy chair to make the world calm. We are fascinated with fish in water and watching it helps to soothe our mind. Moving gel inside the tiles gives a resistance that is necessary to express ourselves. All of these items will make our classroom a happier place. Thank you for considering helping us out!
