We at Garden Pediatrics realize that we are currently living in a challenging, ever-changing world amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. We wanted to create a little reminder that we are all in this together and that we can thrive and find the good as we weather this storm.
​
We are challenging our Garden Pediatrics patients and families to spread kindness in your community — allowing space for us all to give back and be involved. We need each and every one of you to participate so we hope you’ll join us!
​
Contest Description: Participate in one of the following activities over the next two weeks and take a picture of your participation/finished product. Tag us in your pictures with the hashtag #GPchallenge. We will then have our staff vote and pick the top 3 winners who will each win a small prize! Please feel free to submit multiple entries if you would like to participate in more than one activity! Deadline for submissions: Thursday, April 16, 2020. If you want to try something not on the list feel free to use your creativity and tag us to be a part of the challenge.
​
**Be sure to practice safe social distancing techniques while participating in this challenge and as always, wash your hands often!**
​
We look forward to seeing all of the ways that you can give back!
