We can’t get enough of YK’s smile! This little boy, who just turned 7, is known as a cheerful, helpful and lively boy. He plays well with other children, likes to sing, build with blocks and play outdoors. YK attends school at the orphanage where he has learned to count up to 50, recognize various fruits and animals, identify shapes, knows the days of the week, memorize songs and share snacks with his peers. He can express his needs, has a rich vocabulary, and is able to communicate clearly to others. YK doesn’t let his physical need slow him down as he is able to walk up and down stairs and catch and throw a ball.
