A Lesson from Amelia Earhart

by John Reich

Amelia Earhart believed that there is no limit in regard to flying.

Angela, a participant at GiGi’s Playhouse Buffalo, also has the same philosophy.

“If Angela likes something, there is no limit,” Dawn Schaffer, Angela’s guardian, states.  “She loves exercise, doing plays and speech at GiGi’s Playhouse.  She has been coming to GiGi’s for two years.  She feels comfortable here.  She didn’t do any of these activities before GiGi’s.”

“Angela loves to exercise.  But she only exercises at GiGi’s,” Dawn continues. 

“Angela was in a play at GiGi’s last July.  Now she loves plays.  When she watches Beauty and the Beast on her tablet, she calls it a play, not a movie.  She never was interested in plays before last July.”

“From taking speech, she likes to follow along when reading.”

Angela, like Amelia Earhart, is progressing and showing no limit in development because of GiGi’s Playhouse.
