Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Watching my preschoolers play, learn and grow is one of my favorite things about my job. Young children learn best through playful experiences that are relevant and meaningful. Story props make story time more interactive and play-based!

Play is so important for the development of cognitive, language, social-emotional and motor skills.

These materials will give my students multi-sensory opportunities to expand on their experiences and practice what they are learning! Interactive books keep little hands busy and little minds engaged. My students would love to "read" the books and expand on what they are learning through hands-on play experiences. Please help with providing these opportunities for my littles to read, play and grow!
