Kennedy Week of the Young Child

Week of the Young Child at Kennedy Head Start/Early Head Start

We had an egg-cellent time celebrating our little learners during the Week of the Young Child!

Easter Egg Hunt – Our kiddos had a blast searching high and low for colorful eggs filled with surprises! Their smiles lit up the playground!

Grandparents Day – We welcomed our wonderful grandparents for a heartwarming day of stories, hugs, and shared memories. Thank you for the love and wisdom you bring!

Father Engagement – Dads and father figures joined in for fun activities and quality time with their little ones. It was a joy to see those strong bonds in action!

Thank you to all the families and staff who made this week so special. Together, we’re building a strong foundation for a lifetime of learning!
