Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My pre k students are always in the dramatic play kitchen center. So much food and fun there to act and out and role play so many things. What they don't have is kitchen appliance to really sought out their play.

A coffee maker, air dryer and toaster are extra fun addends to our play kitchen.

Coffee makers help with pretend playing a diner or restaurant. Toaster adds to fun of toasting bread. Air fryer to show kids how to cook foods. Added components to the kitchen add to added imagination.
