“These are huge gains
and the elementary schools
are thrilled that our children come to them ready to
learn.”
Lisa Sarll, local Head Start
teacher, said the biggest way
a child transforms throughout their time in her classroom is by gaining self-help
skills and independence.
“So many times at the beginning of the year a child
comes into my room and has
no clue what to do as far as
hanging up a coat, backpack,
putting folders away, washing hands, etc., just those
basic skills.
“Now, about three-fourths
of the way through the year
the students are doing those
things on their own.
“It is through learning
some self-help skills that
the child gains some confidence and then is ready to
learn and succeed in an academic setting... the impact
the program gives to each
student is the independence
and self-confidence that
they gain throughout the
year.”

done,” added Hatten, “the

Continued from A1
and the rest for merchandise in the front.
On the main floor, there
will also be a gazebo made
by Church’s husband, she
said.
The studio will be in the
back of the main floor,
where Church will continue to make art as she’s
done for years, while the
section near the front door
will have collections of
toys with pieces of art in
between groups.
“We’ll put in spotlights
so we can have a little gallery between the walls of
toys,” she added. “In be-
tween each toy shelf there
will be a piece of art for
sale. Hopefully, I’ll get
other artists in so it’s not
just my stuff.”
Church also plans to
have monthly roundtable
art/toy workshops for children as a way to extend
her love of art and to bring
children and families into
the store.
The toys, Church noted,
are high-quality, some being hand-crafted in Germany and being eco-friendly
or organic.
The store’s name comes
from Wabash’s black
squirrels, something the
Reston, Virginia, native
isn’t used to.
