The preschoolers try to settle for circle time. But Niko's making faces, Amber can't stop giggling, Stephen needs the bathroom... now.

In this busy group, one child is autistic. Another struggles to balance with casts on her feet. Two have Down Syndrome. And they share the chance to be the best they can be.

The NIAGARA PENINSULA CHILDREN'S CENTRE focuses on allowing kids to do..kid things. Therapy is a big part of their day in the preschool program; kids are learning to walk and talk. They enjoy songs, stories and crafts. They swim and play and laugh.

By supporting the NPCC, you're helping these kids to be the best they can be. And you're helping them to just... be kids.

David is jealous because his sister gets extra attention. It's not that unusual. But sometimes, even Mom and Dad are a little jealous. They all feel confused and frusterated. And frightened.

Raising a family can be tough. But families of children with physical or developmental challenges can feel overwhelmed.

At the NIAGARA PENINSULA CHILDREN'S CENTRE, family support and parents groups offer guidance about physcial and communicative disabilities. They show families how to be supportive, they help parents to be accepting, and they let siblings know that they're not alone.

By supporting the NPCC, you can help families find the support they need, and focus on what really matters.
