Aden is a super sweet, almost-4-year-old little boy.  Aden has a gentle personality and enjoys playing with other kids. He is not afraid of strangers and is willing to actively interact with others. After watching how to correctly play on the jungle gym, Aden was able to do so, and especially enjoys playing on the slides!
