My Project

My high school Child Development 2, 3, and 4 students run a six-week preschool on our campus. This is a free community-based preschool where the students create lesson plans that include both gross and fine motor skills as well as all areas of development.

We are seeking outdoor play equipment to enhance the development of gross and fine motor skills, crucial for young learners.

The equipment will provide opportunities for physical activity, social interaction, and imaginative play, promoting holistic development.

The equipment will benefit over 10-15 preschoolers annually, providing them with valuable opportunities for physical and cognitive development. The activities will be integrated into our curriculum, supporting our goal of providing a well-rounded early childhood education.
