A Miniature Town from Hospital Waste
ثبت نشده
چکیده
the existence of the average child. Once these youngsters, with only the white walls of the wards about them, could think only of " playing hospital," but now they imitate home life and do everything done by the little folk of the outside world. The miracle of it all is that these miniature homes and shops that the tots are making for themselves are all evolved from nothing but ordinary hospital waste. Old boxes, cans and paper become toy beds, chairs, lamps and fully furnished rooms. Not only are they helped thus in a social and educational way, but the work aids them to a speedier recovery and an earlier return to the real outside world.
