My Project
Our kindergarten students love riding tricycles during recess—it's one of the most popular things to do! We currently have two regular-sized trikes, and while they bring lots of joy to many, they don’t work for everyone. Some of our students are a little larger and find it tough—or even impossible—to ride them. It’s tough to watch kids get excited to ride, only to realize the trike is too small for them. Every child deserves to feel the wind in their hair and the thrill of pedaling across the playground with their friends. That’s why I'm dreaming big—literally!
A jumbo-sized trike would give all of our kindergarteners, no matter their size, the chance to join the fun.
Imagine the excitement on a child’s face when they finally get a turn on a trike that fits them! It’s more than just wheels—it’s a chance for every student to feel included, confident, and free to play like everyone else. This trike will not only bring big smiles to the students in my class, but to the students in the TK and other kindergarten classes as well.
