My Project

My preschoolers have been working hard so far this year on learning the skills they will need for kindergarten.

Help me celebrate my preschoolers' learning by giving them end-of-year gifts as they kick off their summer before kindergarten!

I am asking for the book "Kindergarten, Here I Come" so the parents are able to read the story with their child before going to kindergarten. I am hoping this helps ease any nervous jitters for them as they transition into elementary school. I am also requesting materials to encourage outdoor fun this summer. I'm so proud of all they have accomplished so far and what they will have accomplished by the end of the school year!

Thank you so much for considering our project.
