Kindergarten Winter Playland

Help me give my students fun and engaging toys so they can play with their friends in other classes as the weather gets colder.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hatcher's classroom raised $1,487

My Project

With the weather getting colder, recess has shifted from outdoors to indoors. The kindergarten teachers have noticed friendships blossom and grow between our classes outside at recess. We want to continue providing our students with the opportunity to play with their friends during that time in an indoor play land!

We've all come to love these children and want them to continue fostering the friendships and building the social skills they've already begun to develop outside with their peers.

All of the items on this list will be shared among all 120+ kindergarteners in our classes during indoor recess time. We have the space, with your support, we'll be able to transform that space into a fun and exciting play area.
