Healing with Play

November 22, 2025 @ 11:00 am 1:00 pm

The Santa Fe Children’s Museum is honored to partner with Gerard’s House to welcomes families to participate in a meaningful program, dedicated to support children (0-8) navigating a loss.

Join us to create a “Plate of Memories” to celebrate the foods that remind us of the people or places we miss.  Each participant will design a plate filled with foods that represent special memories or personal traditions.  This creative activity gives kids and families a chance to share their stories, honor their loved ones, and celebrate the connections that remain even when we are apart.

Event will include:

  • Hands-on, grief-related activities led by Gerard’s House
  • Meaningful opportunities to process change and regulate emotions through play
  • Resources for normalizing grief, raising bereavement awareness, and finding support for children and families
  • Reading corner with free books and brochures to help continue conversations beyond the event

This program is included with regular Museum admission.
