My Project

The Praying Mantis kit will give our kiddos learning tools by watching nature up front and personal being able to care for them. Learning how to care for animals will give them a sense of worthiness to be able to care about themselves.

Writing tablets are so much fun, our kiddos love to draw.

These tablets will be used to broaden the imagination, while learning how to draw letters, numbers and most definitely funny pictures.

Memory Games are the best. They will teach our kids to really use their thinking skills and how to put them to good use. I believe that all of our kids will have the best time in learning how to use memory on how to take care of the Praying Mantis while being able to draw what it looks like in different stages.
