My Project

When children grow up, they will need different life skills. One of these life skills is knowing how to cook and clean up after themselves. I would like to provide my students with different toys to use during pretend play to help them learn more about cooking and cleaning, so when they grow up, they will have the exposure they need. My students enjoy hands-on learning, and this will give them an opportunity to learn while playing. Not only will these items teach them more about the kitchen, but they will also help them learn more about sharing and playing with others.
