    Early Childhood Essentials for Back to School

    Back to School with Childcraft®

    We know that not every classroom has the same needs, and early childhood classrooms have their own unique necessities. Preparing a classroom for our youngest learners requires a robust selection of safe and developmentally-appropriate products. Childcraft is here to ensure you have everything you need for your early childhood classroom!

    Seating and Storage

    Furniture is a critical need for early childhood classrooms. Having the right furniture is important for young learners to be engaged, comfortable, and ready to learn. Classroom materials and supplies are also important, so be sure you have a storage plan for an organized and functional environment.

    Ride with Childcraft

    Encourage a lifetime of positive habits with a trike! Tricycles are a great way to encourage exercise and gross motor development, as well as an opportunity to bring learning outdoors.

    Sand and Water Fun

    Sand and water play is an important sensory activity for young learners. It can also be used to teach higher-level mathematical and scientific concepts like volume and buoyancy. Once you’ve filled up your tub with sand and water, add some sand molds and other toys and manipulatives and explore the many learning opportunities these tools can create!
