What GiGi’s Means To Me by Jessica Kane

GiGi’s Playhouse Houston is a place where I go to hangout and learn with my friends who are just like me. I love having Down syndrome and having a place to go where I am celebrated for my abilities. I go every Tuesday for Gratitude Committee and my boyfriend, Kevin, goes too. GiGi’s Playhouse means so much to me and it is so special for me and all of my friends. I am also in Literacy tutoring with my tutor, Meghan. Me and my sister Jennifer were at the opening for GiGi’s Playhouse Houston and I got to meet GiGi. I have loved seeing the Playhouse grow from the very beginning and I am very blessed to be able to come here every week and celebrate my Best of All!

Love, Jessica
