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

I am seeking donations to fund magnetic tiles, dolls, multicultural pretend food, magnifying glasses, and a variety of other materials to enrich our students' experiences through pretend play.

Play is not just a leisure activity for children; it is a crucial aspect of their self-development and socio-emotional learning.

Through pretend play, students can explore their creativity, build problem-solving skills, and develop empathy and cooperation. These activities allow children to express their emotions, understand different perspectives, and build strong social connections.

By donating to our project, you will be providing our students with the tools they need to engage in meaningful and imaginative play.

Your generosity will make a significant impact on our classroom, helping us create a nurturing and stimulating environment where every student can foster their imagination.
