Preschool Play-Based Learning

Help me give my students age-appropriate and diverse toys, materials for learning activities, and resources to grow our dramatic play area.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stafford's classroom raised $669

This project is fully funded

My Project

I absolutely love my students' curiosity, creativity, and enthusiasm for learning. Each of them brings a unique perspective and energy to our classroom, making every day an exciting opportunity to explore and grow together.

The materials for learning will provide them with hands-on experiences that cater to their different learning styles, helping to solidify important concepts in a fun and engaging way.

Age-appropriate and diverse toys will not only spark their imaginations but also help them understand and appreciate the diverse world around them. Items for our dramatic play area will allow them to role-play and experiment with different scenarios, boosting their social and emotional development while encouraging teamwork and problem-solving skills.

These resources will make a significant impact on their educational journey, fostering a love for learning that will last a lifetime.
