Help Us Be Creative

Help me give my students STEM toys to broaden their abilities to create different designs and shapes. We also need the kitchen plates and foods to help make dramatic play interesting and fun.

My Project

As a preschool teacher, I believe that learning through play is one of the most powerful ways to spark curiosity and creativity in young children.That’s why I’m seeking support to provide STEM toys for my classroom.

These hands-on tools will help my students explore early concepts in science, technology, engineering, and math in a fun and engaging way.

With items like building blocks, magnets, gears, and simple robotics, children will develop important problem-solving, fine motor, and critical thinking skills that form strong foundations.

Many students that live in the area I teach do not have the materials at home that would expand their creative abilities. This project will also encourage the students to use positive communication skills, to be cooperative and respectful of each others ideas.
