Parents as Teachers
“I was so lost before Pat came into my home, but the activities she brought have given my daughter a strong foundation for entering school: she had been having speech problems and wasn’t talking. But now, she is talking in three-word sentences, and last month she was named Student of the Week in her Pre-K class.”
