Participant Best of All – Frankie

Meet Frankie!

Frankie is a new GiGi’s Playhouse San Diego explorer. A man of a few words but with a great sense of style and exploration direction.  It can be a bit hard initially to get into that groove when starting something new, but Frankie always seems to have a good time once in the activity. Frankie has been able to join a few different programs such as Teentastic, where he was able to meet other teens building a foundation of support and friendship, GiGi’s Kitchen, where he is learning those safety and healthy meal options with guidance and Dance, where he is learning that beautiful movement with a little motivational push from his parents and his new GiGi’s buddies. He is also starting to learn more basic signs to help others communicate with him. What a great example of perseverance and that whatever you put your mind to you can accomplish. We welcome Frankie with openness to learn and grow.
