Hello Friends,
As you may have heard, there was a devastating fire on Saratoga Street this morning, which displaced many families. The East Boston Social Centers has set up a link for donations to support the displaced families. 100% of the donations will go directly to the families affected. We are not asking for material donations at this time. We are focused on raising money to provide the families with what they need as they navigate through this tragedy. Please share the link below with your friends, family, and neighbors. Thank you.

Be careful out there!

Encouraging Your Child's Problem-Solving Skills
Your child is learning to look at issues from various viewpoints and find multiple answers. You can help this development as a parent.

For instance, if a toy breaks, he could pretend to be a doctor and fix it or select another toy to play with. Observe what he decides and provide positive feedback.
