Smiling Over Sickness

The Smiling Over Sickness (SOS) team does monthly visits – usually on a Saturday or a Sunday afternoon (from 2:00pm to 4:30pm) – to Marnie’s Lounge, a play area in the Hospital for Sick Children that gives paediatric patients and their families a chance to relax and engage in leisurely activities. Our group specifically will always provide an activity to do during our visits to Marnie’s Lounge, such as crafts (examples from this year include: creating lanterns from mason jars, painting flower pots and planting seeds), baking (examples include cupcake decorating), and special activities (such as “Science Day”).
