Beginning in June our Early Head Start Program implemented a new program called “Baby Signs”. We were first introduced to the program at the Virginia Head Start Association Conference that took place in Fredricksburg.

Baby signs is a program that encourages communication using sign language in addition to the spoken word. The idea is that young children can often times understand and communicate a word before they have the language to produce the sounds needed to verbalize the word.

We are excited about providing our EHS children with another avenue to learn, grow and play.

Our welcome to Kids Central Inc Pool Party in Wise on Tuesday was a big splash. Lots of children and their families showed up for treats and fun in the water. It is our way of saying welcome to Kids Central Inc. for the coming school year. Pictured below are KCI staffers Tammy Mullins, Kiley Farmer, and Leslie Graves. Photos by Kim Austin
