Hi everyone! Today I wanted to share with you a new medical art activity that can double as a coping tool! Have you ever since those I Spy cylinders that are full of little objects for you to find as you turn it? The ones you can buy at the store are cool of course, […]
I had the wonderful privilege to work with the kids and teens at Camp KGAT last week. Camp KGAT is a family weekend camp for kids with arthritis and their families. It’s a awesome opportunity for not only the kids with arthritis to engage in normal activities together, but also with their families. It allows […]
So this is my last post about this year’s summer camp. And I’ve saved the best for last. Our theme this summer was magic and for our second intentional programming piece I decided to get a little help from the well known fantasy world of Harry Potter.
Continuing on our topic of camp from last week, I wanted to share another activity that we did. This one was called “Unicorn Boat Races” and it was put on by the staff that ran the camp. All of us were wondering what in the world the activity entailed (all we knew was it took […]

This one is a little simple, but it was actually part of a challenge that I gave myself one day while doing medical art with some children. We had given them various medical supplies and encouraged them to […]
Hi everyone! I’m back with a new theater activity for you all to try. As many of you may have noticed, the Academy Awards were last weekend. While discussing the plans to have a Oscars watching party with friends, I came up with a fun idea for an improvisation activity in honor of the movie […]
If you life in America, you probably noticed that the Super Bowl was tonight. If you are an American Football fan, you probably watched the game, and maybe even went to a Super Bowl party. I am guilty of the latter two this year, even though I wouldn’t define myself as a fan. Which is […]
