Watching their excitement and pride as they cared for their plants and participated in outdoor learning experiences was truly rewarding.\r\n\r\nYour donation has helped create engaging therapeutic opportunities that make learning fun, memorable, and impactful.

Another thing that was in this project that greatly helps my students are different texture chewelries that provide them with safe options to combat their PICA yet still meet their sensory needs.\r\n Although winter is over, there are still many students who are being sent home with cold and flu symptoms. The Chlorex wipes help us keep the rooms clean and disinfected to help minimize germs. We have many students who also experience seasonal allergies and the tissues have been a much needed supply.

These items helped take our dramatic player area up a level. We were able to set part of our dramatic play area up to look like a pizzeria. My students enjoyed making their own pizzas with the Melissa & Doug Wooden Pizza Party Play Set. This pizza set came with 36 self-stick toppings so they could choose which toppings they wanted for the pizza. When you eat pizza though you sometimes become thirsty. They were able to use the Melissa & Doug Thirst Quencher Wooden Drink Dispenser with juice Inserts and ice cubes to pour their \"customers\" drinks. Their youngest customer is the Baby Alive Fruity Sips Doll who sips from a sippy cup.\r\n Other items that we received included the Fisher-Price Baby & Toddler Toy Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Piggy Bank and the Gifts2U Girls Beauty Salon Set. The students enjoy using the plastic coins with the piggy bank as they work on colors and numbers. The 23 piece kids beauty salon pretend hair styling set came with a blow dryer, barber costume apron, scissors and stylist accessories. My class enjoys using these items to pretend they are in a salon. We really appreciate your support in helping us obtain these materials.

When tiny hands get cold on chilly mornings, we now have warm hats and gloves ready to help. When runny noses and little spills happen — as they always do with our busy babies — tissues and wipes are right there to save the day. Having extra pairs of pants on hand has been a true lifesaver, helping our students stay comfortable, confident, and focused on learning rather than feeling uncomfortable.\r\nMost importantly, these supplies have helped keep our children healthy, warm, and cozy throughout the school day. Knowing that our students are cared for and comfortable allows them to thrive and truly enjoy their Pre-K experience.\r\nFrom the bottom of our hearts — thank you for seeing and supporting the needs of our youngest learners.

I read this book to my students during our circle time and then students took turns trying each of the instruments out.
