REFLECTION
1. Why can the hospital feel like a scary place? What are ways that you could make
it feel less scary?
2. If a family has to stay at the hospital with their baby for a long time, what items
would they miss from home? Could you add items like these in the I♥U Kits?
3. How do I♥U Kits help NICU families?
Tag, You’re It!
