My Project

Help me give my special needs preschoolers a warm back-to-school welcome with our Back To School themed books and manipulatives! Many of my students have never been to school before, and with a speech delay they benefit from multi-sensory learning.

Our special needs preschoolers love a multi-sensory learning experience to grasp new concepts, like Back To School!

My speech therapy kids are 3-4 years old and need hands on learning. With our School Bus and Sesame Street Magnatile sets, I can give them more opportunities to comprehend new words and ideas they hear in classic books like "Spot Goes to School" or familiar songs like "Wheels on the Bus". These kids learn through repetition, and what better way to learn to communicate than through play based learning? Your support means the world to service providers like myself who get to see our preschoolers develop a love of learning! Thank you!
