Camp Little Learners

Help me give my students a warm, cozy, and fun-filled camping theme for my first-year kindergarten classroom!

My Project

As a first-year kindergarten teacher, creating a warm, welcoming space is my greatest hope for my students. With your help, I can bring that vision to life. The supplies from this project will help transform our classroom into a cozy, clean, and inspiring environment where young minds can thrive. A themed classroom isn’t just fun. It sparks imagination, builds a sense of belonging, and helps students feel excited and safe each day they walk through the door.

My goal is to provide materials that support hands-on learning, calm spaces for emotional growth, and cozy corners that invite curiosity and creativity.

This year, our classroom will have a campsite theme, designed to make learning feel like an adventure! From woodland animals to a cozy tent and twinkle lights, the decorations will turn our room into a fun, nature-inspired space that encourages exploration. The theme will be used across learning centers, bulletin boards, and reading nooks to create a unified, welcoming environment.

Included in this project is a small tent that will serve as a “calm down corner”, a quiet, comforting spot where students can go when they need a moment to reset and regulate their emotions. I’ve also included storage solutions to keep our classroom organized, giving each student a clean, structured space to grow. A few essential desk supplies will help me and the students stay prepared and supported throughout the year.

What makes my students truly special is their energy, kindness, and eagerness to learn. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring so much joy and personality into our classroom. This project is for THEM. Your generosity will not only help shape my first year as a kindergarten teacher but make a lasting difference in the lives of these incredible little learners.
