Child life specialists help kids cope with hospitalization through the power of play & education.

I just recently had a volunteer assigned to my department which I am very excited about! By having a volunteer, I can now engage patients with fun activities that can help normalize the environment & beat the boredom while they wait. One activity that I put together is a simple “greeting cards” craft.

Materials:
– construction paper
– markers
– foam stickers

Instructions:
encourage patients to create a greeting card for a loved one, their doctor, their nurse, their child life specialist ;), or another patient!
