Meet Johnny!

Lions and zebras and snakes, oh my! Meet Johnny – an animal-loving, iPad-playing, Pokemon card enthusiast who is always on the go. Johnny is a jack of all trades with many interests. This kind-hearted lovebug plans to spend the summer riding his scooter, working on puzzles and playing with his extensive car collection, followed by dinner at his favorite spot – McDonalds! Honestly, Johnny loves the happy meal toy almost as much as the nuggets. While he likes to keep busy, Johnny is curious by nature and has the best, most vivid imagination which shines through in his art and craft projects. 

Johnny is a friendly and outgoing child who loves to share his passions with others, whether he is showing off his baseball skills or discussing his favorite snacks. Once you have his trust, Johnny will be your biggest cheerleader! He thrives with one-on-one attention and will do best with patient, loving and attentive caregivers. Johnny’s compassion, care and amazing hugs will make him a wonderful addition to a lucky family!
