Wish List

ow would you like to grant us a few wishes?!  If your family is already a member of our Storybook family, then you know how much we like to use 'found' objects in our creative activities.  Many of you have asked what to save/bring in for us.  Here's the best place to check out our wish list. 

Items with a month before them mean that we especially need these items by the end of that month to ensure we can plan our projects accordingly.

If you have something you think we might have a use for, but aren't sure, just ask us!  It might be just the thing we need to create a new project - and experience - for the children!
