My Project
Help Grow Our Calming Corner!
We’re creating a peaceful, nature-themed *Calming Corner* for our kids — a special space designed to help them relax, reflect, and reset.
To bring our cozy Campout Theme to life, we’re hoping to add:
Leaf-shaped seating
Tree stump stools
A soft, forest-inspired carpet
With your support, we can build a calm, comforting space where children feel safe and grounded — like a little forest retreat right in the classroom.
Every donation helps us bring nature’s calm indoors!
Thank you for helping us plant the seeds of peace and self-regulation.
