My Project

In my Pre-K classroom, we have two pet guinea pigs, their names are Gibby and Niblet. They add much to my students' classroom experience. The students have a job each week of feeding and watering our guinea pigs. They also play with them, they pretend to be a vet and take care of them at our Pet Vet Center. They build mazes for them to run through and build houses for them to live in in our building center. They also take turns taking the guinea pigs home with them over holidays and weekends. My students truly love our pets, but it is getting more and more expensive to take care of all of their needs, I need help buying their supplies. Please donate to our project so we can afford to keep our precious classroom pets.
