Arkansas Children’s Hospital brings early Halloween to patients in Little Rock

Young patients at Arkansas Children’s Hospital in Little Rock celebrated an early holiday visit with costumed fun. The event helped hospitalized children take part in seasonal celebrations during their medical care.

Hospital staff teamed up with workers from Spirit Halloween Stores. They brought costumes and spooky activity kits to the children.

The effort is part of the Spirit of Children program. That program has supported families during hospital stays for 19 years. Smiles spread quickly.

The fun day comes from an annual partnership between Spirit and Children’s. Little Rock patients enjoyed the special activities together.

Arkansas Children’s Hospital provides specialized pediatric care and medical treatment to infants, children and teens. The facility offers programs to support young patients through extended inpatient stays.

Community members can help create more seasonal smiles for patients. People can make a donation at their local Spirit store location in Little Rock.
