Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My four and five year-old kids have amazing imaginations, and I am in wonder at their creativity! The giant tree house has six rooms to place the furniture, which can be accessed from both sides of the tree house. There is a crank to move the basket down from the tree, and a slide to get out of the tree, as well! Multiple students can play at one time together, which fosters cooperation.

Most importantly, dollhouses/tree houses facilitate fine motor skills, and imaginative play that help kids grow their social skills and make sense of the world.
