Day 5 – The Journey Home ✈️

In the wee hours of the morning, we boarded the subway with sleepy eyes and full hearts, then caught a bus in Queens to LaGuardia to begin our long trip home. From New York City to St. Louis to Dallas and, just moments ago, into Little Rock, where Mama — our faithful unpaid Uber — picked us up in the Nana Mobile (proudly named by Lanie 😂).

We are almost home.

Memories were made. Adventures were had. Laughter, magic, tired feet, frozen noses, and so much joy filled these days. And as always happens when my heart is full, ideas for both companies are already swirling in my mind ✨

New York, thank you.
Home, here we come.

✨ Day 4 – New Year’s Day Adventures in New York ✨

We welcomed the New Year with a cozy morning in, ordering a special breakfast — including a rainbow bagel that absolutely made our day 🌈🥯

From there we headed to Central Park, where fresh snow made everything feel like a winter postcard. We visited Gapstow Bridge, The Mall, and Bethesda Terrace and Fountain, admired the frozen pond, enjoyed hot chocolate and hot dogs from a cart, listened to a talented violinist, and even spent a little time playing with some very curious squirrels. We also went by Bow Bridge — the park was simply magical in the snow ❄️

Our afternoon took us to One World Trade Center and Ground Zero, where we spent time at the twin memorial reflecting pools — a powerful and emotional reminder of resilience, grief, and hope. 🤍

For our final adventure of the day, we braved the freezing cold and walked to the harbor at sunset to look across the water at Lady Liberty — glowing against the evening sky and absolutely breathtaking.

We ended the night with one more subway ride, a bit of last-minute souvenir shopping, and finishing the day the New York way: Joe’s Pizza delivered in 🍕✨

Here’s to a New Year filled with connection, meaning, and moments of wonder.

🌙 Evening Miniature Monday – Barbed Wire

🖤 Miniature Monday 🖤

The Barbed Wire is a powerful and protective symbol — one that speaks loudly even in its stillness.

Positive themes: Boundaries, self-protection, survival, strength.

Challenging themes: Trauma, danger, restriction, emotional pain.

💬 Is this wire keeping something out… or holding something in?

☀️ Afternoon Miniature Monday – 3D Printed Moon

🌙 Miniature Monday 🌙

The 3D Printed Moon invites reflection in the sandtray — a symbol that waxes, wanes, and reminds us that change is constant.

Positive themes: Cycles, intuition, calm, reflection, rest.

Challenging themes: Darkness, uncertainty, isolation, hidden emotions.

💬 In the tray, is the moon offering peace… or illuminating something long kept in the shadows?

✨ Miniature Monday – Evening Edition ✨

Tonight’s spotlight goes to something almost everyone recognizes instantly… the iPhone 📱

In the sandtray, an iPhone can symbolize connection, communication, and access to the world—relationships maintained, support within reach, and voices being heard. At the same time, it may represent pressure, comparison, distraction, or feeling constantly “on” and overwhelmed.

This small but powerful miniature often opens conversations around boundaries, social media, identity, belonging, and the balance between connection and disconnection.

Sometimes it represents safety.
Sometimes stress.
Sometimes the place where everything—and everyone—lives.

What does it show up as in your tray?

⚡ Miniature Monday (Afternoon Feature): Lightning ⚡

Lightning is fast, powerful, and impossible to ignore. In the sandtray, it can symbolize sudden change, intense emotions, breakthroughs, or moments that shift everything in an instant.

✨ On the hopeful side, lightning may represent clarity, insight, creativity, awakening, or the spark that ignites growth and transformation.
🌩️ On the heavier side, it can reflect overwhelm, fear, anger, chaos, trauma, or experiences that felt shocking or out of control.

This miniature invites exploration of big feelings, turning points, and the moments in life that strike without warning—yet often lead to something new.

Sometimes the storm reveals the path forward.

🕎 Happy Hanukkah 🕎

As the Festival of Lights begins, we honor the light that continues to shine even in times of struggle, uncertainty, and change. Hanukkah reminds us of resilience, hope, faith, and the power of small lights coming together to make something brighter.

May this season bring warmth, peace, and moments of connection for you and those you love. We are grateful to celebrate alongside our Jewish friends, families, colleagues, and clients in our community.

From all of us at Serendipity Sand & Play Shop, we wish you a meaningful and light-filled Hanukkah. ✨🕯️

🎬 Miniature Monday 🎬

Today’s feature: the Movie Slateboard

In the sandtray, a movie slateboard can symbolize “action,” new beginnings, and the power of storytelling. It often represents moments of transition—starting a new scene, rewriting a narrative, or calling attention to a moment that matters.

✨ Positive themes: fresh starts, creativity, voice, authorship, reclaiming one’s story
⚠️ Challenging themes: feeling scripted, performing for others, pressure to get it “right,” fear of being seen

This miniature invites clients to explore questions like:
➡️ Who is directing my story?
➡️ Is this a new scene or the same one repeating?
➡️ What would I change if I could call “cut”?

A powerful symbol for identity work, transitions, and narrative exploration—especially for clients who feel like life has been happening to them instead of with them.

Happy Miniature Monday! 🎥✨

✨ Something meaningful is coming… ✨

On Friday, December 12th, we are releasing our brand-new Awareness Ribbon Bundle — a full set of 3D-printed ribbons representing a wide range of causes, identities, and lived experiences.

Every ribbon tells a story.
Some speak of hope.
Some honor loss.
Some whisper advocacy.
Some shout resilience.

These symbols hold stories of strength, grief, resilience, advocacy, and hope… and we cannot wait to bring them to your sand trays. 💛💚💙💜🖤🤍

Stay tuned for the release of December's Bundle.
