My Project

My kiddos work hard each day using their whole bodies to learn. We teach and they then learn through play. This exhausting for their little bodies.

They need to rest!!

Each day we have a time of rest to their brains soak in what they have learned. However we need more sheets and blankets for their cots.

We want to provide these and not ask parents to do so. This allows all sheets and blankets to look the same, so that no arguments occur. At least no arguments over sheets and blankets. Having this set will allow us to do laundry and always have what we need!
