🐰🥜 The Reester Bunny hopped in to spread some Easter smiles!

Even in the hospital, kids still get to celebrate — and this special visit brought a little extra joy to our tiniest patients at Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital.

Moments like these can make a big difference for children and families during their stay — and we’re so grateful to Hershey's Chocolate World for helping make it happen.

💙 Thank you for making the day so special for our patients and families.

🐣 Thank you to Easter for Eli for delivering 150 Easter baskets to children at Penn State Health Children’s Hospital — a tradition they’ve continued for 10 years.

This incredible act of kindness is done in memory of Elias Garrett, who lost his battle with cancer just 10 days before his 4th birthday. Through this effort, his legacy continues to bring joy and comfort to children in hospitals across the country.

💙 We are so grateful to be part of this special tradition and to help carry Eli’s light forward.

💙 Each blue pinwheel tells a story.

Outside Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital, 505 pinwheels represent the children supported by the Center for the Protection of Children at Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Penn State College of Medicine.

Each April, during Child Abuse Prevention Month, this display raises awareness and honors the lives of children and families impacted by abuse and neglect.

At Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital, our teams are committed to helping every child feel safe, supported and heard. Through research, education and compassionate care, we work to prevent abuse, strengthen reporting and support healing.

🫶 Join us in raising awareness and supporting children and families in our community.

✨ From patient to storyteller — and still shining bright.

Pippi, a former patient of Dr. Giselle Sholler, recently chose to highlight her story and career for a school biography project — a meaningful reflection of the connection they built along the way.

Today, Pippi is an inspiring, confident and resilient young girl who continues to shine. Her journey is a powerful reminder that cancer does not define our patients — and it certainly doesn’t limit their future.

💙 We’re so proud of you, Pippi!

🚗 Keep your child safe in the car — every trip, every age!

Installing a rear-facing convertible car seat? Here’s what to remember:

✅ Keep your child rear-facing until at least age 2 — and until they reach the seat’s height or weight limit
✅ Harness straps at or below your child’s shoulders
✅ Buckle snugly — no pinches at the shoulder
✅ Chest clip at armpit level
✅ Car seat installed tightly — less than 1 inch of movement
✅ Check the recline angle

👀 Watch our video for step-by-step instructions and see exactly how it’s done!

💙 March is Child Life Month.

At Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital, Child Life Specialists help turn moments of fear into moments of comfort.

Through play, preparation and emotional support, they help children understand their care, cope with difficult procedures and find moments of joy during their hospital stay.

Their work reminds kids that even in the hospital, they’re still kids.

This month, we’re celebrating the incredible Child Life team who help make some of the hardest days a little easier.

🐾💙 Some of the best care has four paws.

For two years, Baron has been a steady source of comfort, connection and plenty of tail wags at Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital.

From quiet moments at the bedside to helping ease anxiety during treatment, Baron brings a sense of calm when it’s needed most. His presence can turn a hard day into a more manageable one — and sometimes even a brighter one.

🐶 We’re so grateful for the joy, comfort and companionship he brings to our patients, families and care teams every single day.

Happy 2nd anniversary, Baron!
