On September 28 – 30 we transformed FIVE areas of Lighthouse for Grieving Children into Smilezones! The new Smilezones are in:
- Children’s Art Room
- Children’s Medical Play Room
- Children’s Group Room
- Youth Room
- Kitchen
By including weighted blankets, age-appropriate and graffiti inspired murals, headphone connected musical instruments and more we made the kitchen, children’s art room, medical play room, children’s group room and youth room into warmer, safer spaces for the children and youth to grieve safely and comfortably in their own ways.
