An iPad for Dean on his birthday

Posted Mar 19, 2025
Dean loves watching his foster brother play games on his iPad. Their family places a strong emphasis on educational games, and Dean has started learning how to play some of these games by sharing the experience with his foster brother. He would be incredibly excited to have an iPad of his own. Since he is a bit behind in his speech and recognition skills, having his own tablet would help him work toward his developmental milestones more effectively. Dean came to his new home with nothing but the clothes on his back, so having something that belongs to him would be a meaningful blessing for him. With his birthday approaching, the only wish he has expressed so far is for a tablet, making this wish a dream come true for him. An iPad would also be important for Dean because it offers FaceTime capabilities, allowing him to see and connect with family members he is allowed to stay in touch with.

Dean is 3 years old and lives in MO

Dean is an energetic child who loves to play. His passions include cars, monster trucks, and cats! He enjoys having the full attention of his caregivers and being involved in everything they're doing. Always ready for an adventure, Dean is currently working on feeling safe in his caregivers' home. He was removed from his previous home due to neglect, which has led him to develop a significant distrust of adults. As a result, Dean needs constant reassurance from his caregivers. Communication is one of the biggest challenges for Dean and his family at this time. He looks up to his foster brother and continuously tries to keep up with him and learn from him. It's been a true blessing to witness the bond forming between them.
