“Hims My Fwen”

My Project

The beginning of the school year is an exciting time, but it can also be confusing and overwhelming—especially for our youngest learners. Our four-, five-, and six-year-olds are taking in so many new faces and routines that name tags quickly become essential.

Please consider helping me provide name tags for my little learners.

Even weeks into the semester, some children still don’t know the names of everyone in their class. Sometimes, they don’t even know the names of their own “fwens.”

Yes, their mispronunciation of friends is adorable—but every child deserves to be called by their name. These name tags will support that, helping students learn each other’s names through repetition, just like they do with letters, numbers, and classroom objects.

Thank you for taking the time to read about our project. Your support helps create a music room where every child feels seen, known, and included—and that makes all the difference.
