12 Days of Children’s!

Yesterday wrapped up our 12 Days of Children’s series of gift ideas you can donate for the patients this holiday season. Here is the full list of 12 needs that our patients have for play therapy during the holidays and throughout the year:

1. Snugapuppy Soothers and Nuture Smart crib mobiles
2. LEGO blocks
3. 11×17 wrapped canvases, acrylic paint, stamp pads and brushes
4. collegiate items
5. Play-Doh and shaping tools
6. electronics
7. electronic board games and playing cards
8. over-the-door basketball hoops
9. video games and consoles
10. craft supplies
11. light up and musical toys for infants and toddlers
12. school supplies

While patients are at Children’s, our dedicated staff works to help them cope with the stress of uncertainty of their hospitalization by providing support and distraction, promoting family-centered care and encouraging a sense of fun in spite of challenging circumstances. If you wish to donate items, please bring them to the Elf Depot located on the 2nd Floor Russell Building 5th Ave South. You may park in the 5th Ave turnaround to drop off your donation. Items must be new and unwrapped.

Thank you for your support of our patients and your generosity!
