Each box received a \"Wow\", or a \"That's Amazing\" even down to the markers. Seeing their faces light up brought great joy to me.\r\n\r\nOne of our most favorite gifts is the kitchen center. The creativity that takes place daily in that area is wonderful to witness. On one day it could be a family cooking for each other, the next day is could be a restaurant serving customers and using play money. I have to monitor this center to make sure everyone is getting a turn. I have seen students form new friendships because of this center. It warms my heart.

It is inspiring to see how something as simple as a seating arrangement can boost confidence, foster creativity, and create a sense of belonging within the classroom.\r\nYour generosity has made an immeasurable difference in the lives of these young learners, and we are forever grateful.
