Wish submitted by:

Scarlett and her mom were taken from Scarlett’s biological parents by child protection services and are now living in a housing program. Scarlett is a happy, friendly girl who brings joy to people around her. She loves her mom very much and feels safe and comforted by her. Scarlett is full of energy and curiosity and likes to explore and try new things. She enjoys playing and doing activities that let her express herself and stay active. She is open to new experiences and handles challenges with strength. Scarlett shows her personality through her laughter, kindness, and the way she connects with others. She has a way of brightening a room and helping others notice small, happy moments. Scarlett is a special child with a lot of love, energy, and spirit.

Scarlett and her young mom were taken from their home by DCPP. Her mom is working hard and has found a new job, but she still needs some help getting a few things for Scarlett. Scarlett is getting ready to start 3-year-old Pre-K, where she will have a daily nap time. Because she is on the autism spectrum, she needs comfort, routine, and familiar things to help her feel safe. A Moana-themed nap mat would give Scarlett a cozy, personal space to rest. Having a character she loves can help her feel calm, make naps easier, and reduce stress. The soft design will also help her feel comfortable and secure.
