Books For Big Feelings and Busy Bodies!

Help me give my students books that support sensory processing and emotional development!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Terri's classroom raised $161

My Project

My preschoolers are full of energy, curiosity, and big feelings! To support their growth, I’m building a collection of sensory processing books that help them understand their emotions, bodies, and the world around them. These stories will spark conversations, support self-regulation, and make circle time even more meaningful.

With your help, we’ll fill our classroom with books that celebrate every wiggle, wobble, and wonderful moment of learning.

These resources will be used daily to support social-emotional development in a fun, engaging way by creating a safe, inclusive space where every child can thrive.
