We’re so grateful to at Barton Creek Mall for selecting Child Inc. as the beneficiary of their Mission Monday fundraiser! 💛
Thanks to your generosity—and to everyone who shopped Monday's last quarter—a portion of sales was donated to support our Head Start program. These funds will directly help strengthen our programming and ensure children and families in our community continue to receive the care and resources they need to thrive.
We truly appreciate your commitment to giving back and making a meaningful impact here in Austin!
Last week, we celebrated the end of another wonderful Head Start year!
From circle time and story time to outdoor play, art projects, music, gardening, and discovering new things each day, this year was filled with joyful experiences, laughter, friendships, and so much growth. Our children explored, created, learned through play, and built confidence as they get ready to keep growing in kindergarten! 🍎✨
Thank you to our families, teachers, staff, and community partners for making the 2025–2026 Head Start year so meaningful for our children.
We hope everyone has a fun, safe, and happy summer! ☀️
From planting seeds to harvesting fresh produce, our Head Start children have spent the 2025–2026 school year learning, growing, and caring for their gardens through the Green Corn Gardening Project. 🌱🌽
This hands-on experience gave children the opportunity to connect with nature, build responsibility, and explore healthy foods while working together each season.
A heartfelt thank you to all of the volunteers and community partners who helped make this project such a meaningful and fulfilling experience for our children and families as we close out another wonderful Head Start year. 💚

So much learning takes place in the classroom during fun Head Start activities like making cookies! 🍪
While children are having fun mixing, pouring, and decorating, they are also building important school readiness skills every step of the way.
Making cookies helps children learn:
• Math skills through measuring and counting
• Science concepts by observing how ingredients change when mixed and baked
• Fine motor skills while stirring, pouring, and scooping
• Language development by following directions and learning new vocabulary
• Social-emotional skills through sharing, teamwork, and taking turns
• Healthy habits and independence by helping prepare food
Hands-on learning experiences like cooking help children connect learning to real life in exciting and meaningful ways. Plus, enjoying a delicious treat together makes the experience even sweeter! ❤️🍪

Creativity, teamwork, and a whole lot of imagination were on full display at our Car Build & Show! 🚗✨
Parents and children worked side by side to design and build their very own cars using cardboard boxes and simple materials. From planning out their designs to putting on the finishing touches, children were involved in every stage of the process. Whether it was choosing colors, deciding on features, or helping assemble parts, each step gave them the opportunity to think critically, solve problems, and express their creativity.
Hands-on activities like this are more than just fun—they help children develop confidence and a sense of accomplishment. Seeing their ideas come to life and proudly showcasing their finished cars was a powerful moment for both children and their families. These shared experiences strengthen bonds and create lasting memories while supporting important developmental skills.
We loved seeing the pride on each child’s face as they displayed their creations. Great job to all of our amazing builders! 👏
A special thank you to the Austin Police Department and the Austin Fire Department for their support in helping make this event even more meaningful for our families and children. 🚓🚒
