My Project

Welcome to Pre-K3 to Kindergarten PE class! PE is a very important part of the day for early childhood students. Movement throughout the day is not only encouraged, but it is absolutely necessary. Students use PE as an outlet to release their wiggles from their long days of learning, to develop their motor skills, and to be introduced to new and creative ways to move their bodies.

Help me give them the best equipment to inspire movement!

We are in need of child size equipment that resembles a real life fitness center. This includes miniature ellipticals, stationary bikes, rowing machines, a bench press, and barbells.
