During their time with us, our visitors experienced how T\u016bt\u016b and Me creates a joyful, family-centered learning space for keiki (children) ages birth to five and their caregivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our guests joined keiki and \u02bbohana and observed a Family-Child Interaction Learning (FCIL) program in action. They watched our teaching team integrate early literacy, math, art, and science with Hawaiian values through playful, hands-on experiences that keep parents and caregivers deeply engaged in their keiki\u2019s learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe had a wonderful visit from the delegation yesterday. The hui visited our Pana\u02bbewa site and then returned to our Home Visiting office for further discussion,\u201d shared Amanda Ishigo, Project Director of T\u016bt\u016b and Me Traveling Preschool. \u201cIt was an honor to share our work and be inspired by the progressive ways they are supporting families in their own community.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"921\" src=\"https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-1400x921.jpg\" alt=\"Pueblo of Jemez and Delegation of New Mexico's representatives and Tutu and Me team on Hawaii Island\" class=\"wp-image-20017\" style=\"width:646px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-1400x921.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-768x505.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-1536x1011.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/pidf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pueblo-Jemez-visit-1-600x395.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Pueblo of Jemez and Delegation of New Mexico&#8217;s representatives and Tutu and Me team on Hawaii Island<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Visits like this deepen understanding of Hawai\u02bbi\u2019s families and the importance of community-based early learning opportunities.
