What a great project and thing to do! These little ones need something to keep them lifted, engaged and happy. I will post this on my FB page.

Wish I had one. I just sent emails to a couple of photog groups I belong to and posted it on a couple of FB groups, too.

this is one of the best things you can do for a human boing.... education, self-expression...and a chance to dream.
