What To Wear? We Need A Cricut To Prepare!

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

We are embarking on a New journey this year! We want to incorporate more wearable art to showcase our own individual styles with flare! We want our Preschool program to stand out and give a voice to our students and allows them to express their creativity. Here is where we need YOU!

We've tried tye-dye and paints on clothing which is really fun but to create a masterpiece from start to finish that only requires their imagination and crayons, then turn around and make their pieces into something they can wear is beyond amazing!

The Cricut 3 machine and the other materials will support us in making some truly creative art activities. Can you imagine being able to make hats, t-shirts, badges, class logo gear for trips and all the special Family Engagement incentives to wear is mind boggling!

We could really use your help in getting this project off the ground. Remember EVERY DONATION COUNTS.

With Gratitude
