“My favorite thing about school is I like playing music.”
Jamal is very caring and loves to help out with younger kids with chores or showing them how different things work! He’s extremely respectful, especially with adults, and makes sure to say “please,” “thank you,” and “you’re welcome!” He enjoys a variety of activities, but of course he’s a big fan of playing. He’s got his own Barbies and a collection of cars he likes to share with people!
He’s been able to attend summer camp a few times and would love to do that again this year! He made a ton of friends there he’d like to see again, just like all the friends he’s made at his gymnastics classes. Jamal likes the outdoors so he’s always down for some camping or hiking! He also likes to relax by heading to the movies and getting a big tub of popcorn!
Jamal would do well in either a one or two-parent home and would love a forever family that came with brothers or sisters, but he likes to be the oldest so he can help set a good example. He will do best with a patient transition into a forever home with parents who make communication a priority. He’s very active and hopes for parents who want to encourage that and participate in things with him. He does best with structure and routine with expectations that don’t change day to day.
