My Project

I am an elementary school reading teacher. I work with students who are in grades K through 4th. For my third and fourth grade students, our groups run 50 minutes. I would like to have comfortable places to sit while we work on reading. I think these pillows are perfect to provide that comfort. When I work with my kindergarten, first and second grade students, I think these pillows will provide an alternative to sitting in hard chairs for a short period of time. I love the calming colors and I think that when the kids see the beautiful pillows they will feel relaxed and ready to work. Thank you for any support that you can provide.
