Give Great Play Based Therapy for Awesome Autistic Kids

Help me give my students engaging fun activities during play based speech therapy.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Onsoti's classroom raised $695

This project is fully funded

My Project

I love working with children who are Autistic.

This year, I have ~55 little ones who have communication delays.

Most of them are in self-contained classrooms. The kids have vocabulary delays and the farm animals, & vegetable toys would hep in improving the same. Some of them, are non-verbal and sue communication devices, most of these toys would motivate them to communicate. Overall, they would truly benefit from toys that not only address their speech and language delays, but those that take their sensory needs into consideration.

Thank you for your support!
