Call All Builders to the Block Center

Help me give my students transportation board books, a wooden train set, a wooden airplane with luggage, block play garages and nature tube pets.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dell'Orto's classroom raised $303

This project is fully funded

My Project

Block play offers an open-ended, creative and valuable play and learning experience for preschoolers. Blocks enhance children's problem-solving abilities, mathematics skills, and language and literacy abilities.

With these transportation books, train set, wooden garages, airplane and pets, my little builders will be able to construct creations while playing in our block center.

My preschoolers love using their imagination. The block center is one of their favorite places to play each day. Theses items will enhance their block play by allowing them to create airports, train stations, garages and houses with pets in them.
