Sweet and Inquisitive Boy Seeks a Forever Home [TUESDAY’S CHILD]

Zachary is a young, inquisitive boy.  He is well mannered and tends to be on the quieter side.  He is, however, a very curious child and asks a lot of questions about how things work.  Zachary enjoys playing with Legos, building things, and playing video games.  He loves to spend time outside swimming andplaying baseball.

Zachary is able to build relationships with others, particularly caregivers, and is described as being sensitive and kind.  Zachary is a sweet, polite young boy.  Once he warms up to people around him, he will ask intriguing questions.

Academically, Zachary is on target and in elementary school.  He is working on social skills at school and has done well in his class.  Zachary responds well to words of encouragement and praise.  He recently expressed that he would like to be an environmental scientist when he grows up.

Zachary would do well in a family of any constellation, with or without older children in the home.  A family for Zachary should be open to helping him maintain a relationship with his younger sister and birth parents.  A home that can provide a structured environment, close supervision, and support will allow Zachary to thrive.
