Don't stop creating! Students in my K-2 Art classes love to use their imaginations to build, draw, search, and develop their brains while they are playing! I am in need of some materials that the students can use when they are finished with their art project and may have a small chunk of free time. I also see a group of special needs children that would also benefit from such items.

Often times when a student finishes their project they may have some extra time before class is over. When they have such time I let them choose between free draw or maybe computer time. It would just be nice for the students to have a few extra options.

I am looking for art related objects that students still have to use their brains to play with. Building with blocks or a type of puzzle is great for young students!

This project would benefit over 500 students year after year! I appreciate your help in making the art room even more fun and stimulating!
