Our child life students lead activities in our Family Hope Center each week for children and families to participate in as they wait for their therapy appointments. These activities are specifically designed to model normalcy and effective coping, and they help our families bond.
During a recent session, families made dreamcatchers. A child shared with the group that this activity reminded her of the Worry Dolls they had made a few weeks prior, since both the dreamcatchers and the dolls help get rid of worries so that we can sleep peacefully. The child smiled and said, "Good! Because they really helped me!"
Thank you to our amazing child life staff and everyone who works at the center to help children and families grow and heal!
