I wanted to tell a little bit about Headstart incase someone doesn't know. Headstart is a program that is for 3 to 4 year olds. It helps them to prepare for Kindergarten, and should there be a child that needs a little more help with numbers, colors, letters and so on, the class size is usually a little smaller so they can get the extra help that they might need. It is such a good program and it is even better when there are teachers in there that REALLY care about the kids and wanting them to do well in school. At our Headstart we have some really caring teachers and good volunteers. Each child is given attention and that they know that they are cared for when they are there. When me or Curtis goes in to help or to drop a surprise to them, they always run up and call us Aunt Jewel or Uncle Curtis, some say...your from The Dairy Freeze! Or when Curtis' mom goes in they all call her Gammy Pat.... It just warms your heart to see them all running up to you and they are so excited to see you! You can't help but love them!
That is just a little bit about Headstart there are many wonderful things that they do there! Support your local Headstart, by volunteering or donating materials that they may need. Please go through the proper channels before you do, to find out what they might need. It is very rewarding!
