A Universal Approach to Day Care


HADDON HEIGHTS, N.J. -- Michael Gentry ran into a day care center room and dove head-first into a pit filled with colorful plastic balls.
His 3-year-old sister Kate was close at his heels, copying his every move.
Michael, 5, has Down syndrome, while Kate is a typical child.
The Gentrys were at Little Butterflies, a day care opening next month at Bancroft's Haddon Heights campus. The center will accept both children with special needs -- especially children on the autism spectrum -- and children who do not have additional developmental needs.
