Fun Nap Time and Safety!

Help me give my students playards to help with safety during nap time.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ruby Bryant's classroom raised $192

This project is fully funded

My Project

The playard are a fun way for my preschoolers with autism have their own space and have a fun nap time without feeling the pressure or have to lay down. Not all children, especially children with autism take nap but it is in our daily schedule at school to have nap time for those who rest. Having a playpen in the classroom allows children who do not sleep a chance to play in their own space without walking all over other children who rest or who want to lay down.

The safety locks are needed to keep children's observant eyes and hands from harm.
