My Project

Hey Awesome Donors!

Our kindergarten class is gearing up for the most exciting event of our year – the Kindergarten Circus!

We're going to have a blast with fun activities that get our bodies moving, our creativity soaring, and our teamwork shining. But to make it all happen, we need a few things to really kick off the fun:

A colorful parachute: Perfect for group games that will have everyone giggling and working together!

Jump ropes: For some high-energy, jump-tastic fun to help our kiddos get strong and coordinated. Also, a portable jump rope cart to tame tangled jump ropes.

Balls: To throw, roll, and catch while improving hand-eye coordination (and having a ton of fun!).

Dancing ribbons: Because every circus needs some dazzling, twirling action for those fancy performances!

Your donation will help us create a magical, action-packed performance full of laughter, learning, and teamwork. Thanks for helping us make this circus a reality – we can’t wait to see the kids shine!

Big Thanks,

Ms. Boyter
