Percussion Instruments:
Objective: To encourage musical activities among children.
Requirements: A set of safe, sturdy, and child-sized instruments (e.g., small drums, tambourines, xylophones).
Example: Child-friendly percussion instruments made of wood, without sharp edges or small parts.
Cards for Non-Communicative Children:
Objective: To assist children who, for various reasons, do not want or cannot communicate.
Requirements: Cards with clear pictograms or images indicating the child's needs or state (e.g., "I don’t want to talk," "I need help").
Example: Simple laminated cards or interactive electronic versions that children can easily show to adults.
STEM Kits for Preschool Education:
Objective: To teach science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through practical activities.
Requirements: Kits with simple explanations about kinetic energy, electrical discharge (e.g., how a balloon gets electrified).
Example: Kits with experiments like simple machines, magnets, balloons, and static electricity kits with clear instructions and child-friendly illustrations.
