What can WOW do for my child?What can WOW do for my child?

WOW gives your child a place to be with other children who have similar experiences as he/she does. It's a place to experience new activities they may not have experienced before and possibly never would have tried without other kids just like them giving them the support and encouragement they need to try.

WOW expands childrens' views of what they can accomplish, helping them to have more meaningful experiences. WOW's Winners  remember the Circle experiences throughout their lives. This supportive group really encourages children to explore their interests and increase their independence and the skills they will need in their adult lives.

What can WOW do for me, the parent?

WOW has many resources for parents- other parents! There is an incredible amount of support generated through the parents of the children in the Circles.

Another way that WOW Circle meetings are helpful is that they give you a short break. Your child meets every other Saturday for approximately  2 1/2 hours. This may give you a chance to get some shopping done, go to lunch or just take a break.

WOW encourages your child to participate in activities you may not have thought that he/she would ever get a chance to. It is a real treat to see your child participating in things like baseball, basketball, fishing, tennis and crafts that may not have been available to them before. The self-esteem and independence they gain from participating in activities with their Circle fosters a happier child with lasting memories.

What do they do at a Circle meeting?

Your child will meet with a WOW Circle twice a month. Here’s how the meeting runs:

First they get in a big Circle with all their WOW friends.

Opening Sound-Off Ceremony- say the WOW pledge and share interesting news.

Hub Time- The first activity of the meeting. They might watch a video, learn something new or do something fun!

Pit Stop- Play a game or a sport like basketball.

Mini-Wheels- get into smaller Circles and work on a Spoke.

Checkered Flag Time- come back to the big Circle, enjoy some snacks and say the WOW Pledge again!
