Cookie is a strong and determined young girl facing tough challenges rooted in her difficult past, including experiences of domestic violence. She may have ADHD and high-functioning autism and is currently receiving early intervention. These struggles heighten her feelings of shame, which impact her self-confidence. Despite these obstacles, Cookie’s inner strength shines through, especially in her passion for singing and her dreams of attending dance school. Her advanced abilities set her apart, showcasing her unique talents. Additionally, she finds joy and comfort in drawing and playing with her older sister, activities that provide her a sense of happiness amidst her struggles.

Cookie is an amazing young girl! Even though she faces some challenges because of her developmental disabilities, her resilience and creativity really stand out. She has a bright spirit and loves to play imaginatively, which makes her very special. Right now, she really wants some magnet building tiles. These tiles would not only make her playtime more fun but also help her think creatively and explore design and construction.
