Little Star Lafayette celebrated it’s first anniversary on March 16th at the Lafayette location. Staff and families were invited to stop by, have a hot dog from the hot dog cart, eat some cake and enjoy the festivities!
We even had sunglasses for the kids!
Thank you to the Little Star Lafayette Families and Staff for a great year! We couldn’t have done it without you!
Little Star Center Carmel headed out to the Monon Center starting in October to play some co-ed volleyball against some average (let’s be honest – above average) competition! Although LSC’s regular season ended with a 1 – 7 record, tournament play showed that LSC had really stepped up their game! Winning three games in tournament brought them to Game 13 where they just barely came up short. There were 18 games in the tournament.
LSC is looking forward to playing in other Carmel Parks and Recreation co-ed sports!
Dr. Kevin Beadle, D.D.S. of Carmel Pediatric Dentistry visited the kids of Little Star Center to teach proper brushing habits and how to keep their teeth healthy.
Using a story like “Bucky Beaver and the Good Food Forest,” Dr. Kevin was able to emphasize good oral hygiene, prevention and good nutrition when it comes to taking care of your teeth.
CARMEL PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY is tailored toward a child/parent friendly environment: Infants, children adolescents and special needs. They have a state-of-the-art facility located just minutes away from Little Star Center Carmel at 12188-A North Meridian Street.

A great crowd came out to support the Autism Society of Indiana and their 2011 Excellence Awards. Little Star Center was there to receive the Excellence in Direct Care Award, an award for providers who demostrate excellence in direct care services to infants, toddlers, children, youth and adults with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) through their work in medical, therapeutic, recreational and other settings using innovative and scientifically supported best practices in partnership with families and other professionals.
This was the first time a center received the award, not an individual. The nominations came from our great families, friends and civic leaders.
Thank you so much for your support. We are honored to receive this award and will continue providing these services we were awarded for.
Answers for Autism, an all volunteer organization founded by parents of children with autism located in Fishers, recently presented a check to Little Star Center for $1,500. This grant will help provide iPads for the center.
About AAI:
Our mission is to increase and broaden public knowledge and awareness of the behaviors, social issues and emotional needs of individuals on the autism spectrum so that all individuals can participate in and contribute to our community without fear of bias or loss of individuality.
Thank you AAI for helping Little Star provide the best services possible.
During the summer at Little Star Center, we really try to get the kiddos out to enjoy the beautiful weather and socialize with others. Our team plans great outings for them to attend that are affordable and fun.
It’s going to be a full summer for the kids at Little Star. Thank you to all who have helped plan these great events and please support the businesses that welcome us with open arms.
Stay cool!
We had a great time this weekend at 2011 Autism Expo – sponsored by Easter Seals Crossroads and the Autism Society of Indiana.
Little Star Center staff enjoyed talking to families and professionals at the event! At our booth this year we gave away light up pens, reusable tote bags and lunch bags to the attendees.
We also had attendees register to win a Kindle from Little Star, so without further adieu………(drum roll, please!)…. the winner is:
Congratulations, David!
Thank you to everyone who came to the event and stopped by to meet us! We’ll see you again next year.
