"Play is the expression of human development in childhood. For it alone is free expression of what is in a child’s soul."
— Friedrich Froebel, "Father" of modern Kindergarten
We are so happy to announce that the winners from the "Be a Character" contest are twins, John and Emily from Illinois.
John loves to climb and can even climb up a wall with his bare hands! He was so excited to ride a two-wheeler bicycle that he ripped off his training wheels and taught himself how to ride it. John enjoys playing clean-up tag with his brothers and sister in their backyard.

Emily is a total tomboy. She can do anything a boy can do, but better! Emily can hold her own with her brothers. She likes to play scream mummy tag because she gets to scare her bossy brothers and make everyone laugh.
