Annual Christmas Party 2023

In a heartwarming turn of events, Totally Kids Rehabilitation Hospital recently rejoiced in the triumphant return of one of its most cherished traditions—the Annual Christmas Party. Emerging from a four-year hiatus prompted by the challenges of the pandemic, the hospital\’s halls once again echoed with the spirit of joy and celebration on Saturday, December 16th, from 12:00 to 3:00 pm.

The festivities kicked off with a melodic overture, led by our esteemed President & CEO, Doug Padgett, the talented Child Development staff, and our compassionate Rehab Doctor and his family. Together, they set the stage for a day filled with warmth, togetherness, and the genuine joy of the season through enchanting Christmas carols.

Entering Santa\’s Workshop, visitors discovered a haven of creativity where both young and old immersed themselves in the joy of crafting. From handmade ornaments to personalized holiday picture frames, each creation served as a testament to the festive spirit that filled the air.

Adding an extra layer of excitement to the celebration, Twilight Photobooth Rental provided a dedicated photo booth adorned with an array of whimsical props. This became the perfect backdrop for capturing playful and memorable moments, as attendees donned funny hats, goofy glasses, and festive accessories, creating a vibrant tapestry of laughter and merriment destined to be cherished for years to come.

No holiday celebration would be complete without a visit from the North Pole\’s dynamic duo! Families lined up to capture timeless memories with Santa and Mrs. Claus, seizing the chance to share wishes, laughter, and, of course, snap a few photos to commemorate the special day. The genuine warmth and merriment exchanged during these moments perfectly encapsulated the true spirit of the season.

The excitement continued with a kaleidoscope of activities catering to all ages. From face painting and engaging games like Pin the Nose on Rudolf to the oven mitt unwrapping game, our Annual Christmas Party offered a delightful experience for everyone. Families also indulged in the delightful activity of crafting intricate gingerbread houses.

As the day unfolded, many visitors were fortunate enough to go home with exciting gifts and prizes, ranging from toys that sparked imagination to gift cards for special treats and delightful surprises.

Santa himself made bedside visits, capturing the magic of the season by personally delivering presents and spreading joy to those who couldn\’t join the festivities in person.

Totally Kids Rehabilitation Hospital\’s Annual Christmas Party was not just an event; it was a jubilant reunion, a celebration of resilience, and an unforgettable experience. After four long years, the joy, laughter, and shared moments illuminated our hospital, creating lasting memories for all who attended. As we reflect on this heartwarming comeback, our sincere gratitude extends to everyone who contributed to making this celebration a resounding success—to the entire clinical team for preparing the participants and the Child Development Department team including all the volunteers, for planning and hosting this event. Here\’s to the spirit of togetherness, joy, and the promise of brighter celebrations in the years to come!
