GEARS Kids Center Parent Resource Bin

Big picture
Dear Families,


We have started a small "Parent Resource" bin on the bookshelf in the hallway near our office. The purpose of the bin is for parents to access a few books that families can borrow. We also have a few pamphlets to take too. We will slowly grow the contents of the bin. We hope to add pertinent resources in education, parenting tools and health and wellness very soon.


Thank you, Wendy and Kelly
