This summer gift box is designed to comfort school-aged children who would benefit from some extra love and care this season. Seasonal gift boxes include a sensory comfort item and therapeutic art activity and are meant to communicate comfort and care to a young person for any reason. Grief is on-going, but typically support for grievers can slow down in the weeks and months following a death. Sending a gift at a transitional time recognizes a child's grief and let's them feel seen and valued, especially during the difficult "firsts" after a loss, such as birthdates, anniversaries, graduations, and summer holidays.
This special summer gift box contains a rainbow capiz shell wind chime, a terra cotta flower pot, plantable seed papers and a set of acrylic paints and a paint brush. The beautiful windchime creates a delicate and relaxing sound. The child can decorate the plant pot with acrylic paint, and plant the seed paper inside to grow their own wildflowers. The child can write on the paper before planting, expressing a special memory or message for their loved one.
Adult supervision is recommended.
