The kids absolutely love smelly supplies like scented markers, scented colored pencils  scented crayons.

Last year one little boy asked if he could make a speech. “I just want you all to know that this isn’t just about the backpacks.Thanks for the great backpack and my fave paper, pencils and everything.  I don’t know if you know that i met Miss Pat when I was 4 and I love her and all of you are like family. Thanks”. 🥹
> Our project will go out with a bang 🧨    by holding an event. This year our theme is “Celebrate the Seasons”. We will celebrate at a park with a summer picnic with hot dogs, chips,  juice boxes, and s’more’s (Graham crackers, Hershey bar and roasted marshmallow ). of course,  there will be themed  games and prizes,oh yes backpacks.
