My Project

These items are more than just classroom tools—they’re lifelines for our sensory students.

The scented markers offer a delightful way to engage creativity, while the chewy necklaces provide much-needed comfort and focus for our kindergartners who benefit from a little extra sensory input.

Every child learns differently, and for some, these small tools make a big difference in their success. Your support directly impacts these incredible students, giving them what they need to thrive. Students who need a little extra help focusing will get exactly what they need from these items! We truly appreciate your generosity and can’t wait to see these items bring joy and calm to our classroom.
