Personalizing Hats For Family Engagement Events!

Help me give my students baseball caps to personalize for our School based Family Engagement Events!

My Project

My wonderful students with Autism enjoy participating in hands-on arts and crafts projects! They love taking their art projects home to share with their families! Imagine working together, students, families and staff, to create personalized hats for Family Engagement opportunities!

My students would have so much fun using their Cricut machine to personalize hats for our school Family Engagement gatherings!

My students love having opportunities explore their creativity! Providing my students the opportunity to personalize hats for our Family Engagement events helps them work on cooperative skills, attention span, fine motor skills, functional life skills, and so much more! My students would use iron on vinyls, mats, and weeding tools along with their Cricut machine to personalize hats for our Family Engagement events, such as when we hold our Family Fun Night, Autism Walk, Gym Night, Winter Wonderland, and so much more! This would allow my students to contribute to our school culture through their unique and creative designs!

Thank you for your support!
