My Project

My students have worked very hard this year. I am making up summer fun bags for them with some outside toys and some inside toys. I will be gifting them playdough.

They love playdough at school so I wanted to gift them a bag of supplies for home.

I want the bags for each child so it can be contained after they use it. Playdough can be used in so many ways. It can be used to make numbers, letters, and shapes. It is great for strengthening their fine motor skills. Children love it and have fun.
