thanks to a friend, our preschool was given this sweet suitcase.  while i am sure i will share it for some vacation play, i am using it daily as a “project suitcase.”

i load it with the supplies we will need for our project of the day.

the anticipation on the part of the preschoolers is worth it.  then i close up my suitcase, pick it up and lead them to the project table.
