Refueling Our Busy Bees

Help me give my students a healthy snack at the end of their busy school day.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Joani's classroom raised $562

This project is fully funded

My Project

Busy Bees is a Pre-K classroom. We are working hard together to get ready for Kindergarten. We are learning our ABC and numbers.

Learning shapes and colors, and playing well together with new friends.

We have breakfast and lunch at school, and we want our Busy Bees to have a snack in the afternoon before their busy day ends. We work hard and play hard together, and our little busy bodies need refueling with a yummy, healthy snack at the end of our fun, busy day.
