Storing Our Creativity

My Project

When it comes to arts and crafts, it's not about the product, it's about the process. Young children need the opportunity to explore various craft materials to express their creativity. They don't need to be told where and how to do something so it looks pretty and perfect. While our classroom has a large selection of craft supplies for students to use, it's often hard for them to find what they are looking for because they lack organization.

These jars will be used to organize craft supplies to help students find what they are looking for.

These jars will store nicely on the shelf and have easy open lids for little hands. Each jar will store their own supply; pom poms, beads, feathers, ribbon, etc; and students will be able to access them at will to use their creativity and imagination. They will have the opportunity to creative what they hand to creative, getting as messy as they'd like.
