About this Kid

Meet Mattias, the LEGO legend! With just a few pieces and his imagination, he can create vast cities and worlds that transport him anywhere. He’ll often include his favorite Pokémon characters in his play and the worlds he builds. Mattias is a naturally creative youth who loves using his imagination. He enjoys playing Pokémon, video games, board games, and expressing himself through music. Mattias is known for being loyal and respectful, and getting along with children of all ages is easy. If granted any superpower, he would wish for telepathy so that he could read minds and predict the future to help stop disasters from happening. Mattias also aims to build a space suit of sorts to help protect people from sickness and natural disasters. After school, he enjoys playing football or exploring the outdoors, looking for rocks, turtles, and frogs. Turtles are one of his favorite animals, in addition to dogs and cats. His favorite color is red, and he loves hamburgers, pork chops, or meatloaf with mashed potatoes and corn.

As a seventh grader, Mattias loves school and loves to learn! He is currently excelling in math and science.

Mattias would do best in a two-parent household with a mom and a dad. A family with pets in a rural area is preferred; however, his caseworker will consider all family types. He has significant connections to maintain following placement. Financial assistance may be available for adoption-related services.

For Missouri children, both home studied and non-home studied Missouri families are encouraged to inquire; only home studied families from other states should do so.
