As a leader and advocate for Early Childhood in Texas, I have the pleasure of helping both private and public school districts create and implement purposeful and experienced-based programs for their early childhood classrooms. With the use of my hands-on products and classroom design, schools have been able to successfully meet and exceed state early childhood guidelines in all areas of academic and social/emotional growth.
