Mia, 9 years old, ME

Wish submitted by:

Mia is the oldest sister and lives with her younger sister in care. She takes good care of her sister and makes sure her needs are met. Mia loves to swim, jump on the trampoline, and create art. She has developed some impressive skills for her age, like making a sandwich and cooking eggs with supervision. She can also do simple chores such as cleaning her bedroom and vacuuming. Mia is new to her foster home and community, and she is excited to explore the area for fun activities and friends.

Mia is learning to tell time as part of her efforts to catch up on her academics. This skill is essential for her independent living. She often wakes up early in the morning before everyone else and sometimes leaves her bedroom. To help her understand when it's time to get up, a cute hippo alarm clock with both digital numbers and flashing lights would be beneficial.
