Help me give my students the animals and insects they need to help develop their fine motor and language skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ammie's classroom raised $382

My Project

My students love to learn and explore with animals and insects. These are items that they are familiar with and enjoy. Children tend to learn when they are familiar with something or you can relate it to something going on in their life.

These animals and insects can assist children with many different skills such as fine motor, language, sharing, sorting, and imaginary play.

These are all skills that they need to learn in the early years so they can build upon them in years to come. With these new toys, the children will not only have fun playing with them but they can learn in the process.
