Creative Play Center

Help me give my students toys that they can use for creative play.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Scott-Blum's classroom raised $258

My Project

In my Autistic Support classroom the students earn a break each day in their schedule. Without structured breaks they may not naturally receive a break at all during the school day.

Breaks throughout the day are important for students with Autism to provide them with periods of time away from stressful demands.

The break allows them to get refocused to get back to work and focus on their learning. Creative play is so important for younger students and allows them to role play and use their imagination. When they play with a friend, these toys allow them to use their social skills and take turns while helping with their emotional well being.
