I visit three schools and multiple classrooms within each school, so having exciting activities that are small enough to bring in my wagon are essential. We use the Gentle Hands song book daily. The students love they are to the tune of familiar songs. It's become a great part of our morning circle and good reminders to start the day. The kinetic sand, 3D stickers, animal manipulatives have been a hit for all the hands on activities we do in preschool. Applesauce pouches have been a life saver to have on hand when students have forgotten their snack or are still hungry after meal time.
