Trading cards and sharing smiles 🥹

One of our favorite traditions returned as @BJW002 welcomed kids from @seattlechildren to trade their autographed cards with the squad.

As summer days get hotter, more teens are drawn to the water—but with growing independence comes increased risk. 🌊 Even strong swimmers can underestimate conditions like currents, distance, or cold water, and peer influence can lead to unsafe choices.
That’s why ongoing conversations, clear expectations, and modeling safe behavior matter more than ever.

"Do we really need a sports physical if we just had our annual check-up?" Yes! Dr. Burt explains how well-child visits and sports physicals are different. https://t.co/X7W8H518pI

Big ideas, bright futures 💡✨
We loved welcoming the graduating 5th graders from Spruce Street School to Seattle Children’s Research Institute! After meeting with our incredible research leaders and learning what they do, these young storytellers took their inspiration and ran with it—creating The Community Connector, a magazine filled with real stories from real people in their community. 📰💛
Their message is simple (and powerful): everyone has a story, and those stories bring us closer together. We couldn’t agree more. Congratulations to these grads—we can’t wait to see the connections you’ll make next! 🎓👏

Summer means more time spent in and around different homes—and with that, more curiosity. Taking a moment to talk about safe firearm storage can help reduce the risk of preventable injuries and keep kids safer wherever they are. Start the conversation with these tools: https://t.co/v5h5YDf32x

Charlotte and Cooper had the opportunity to design custom cleats for Bryan Woo and meet their favorite baseball player in person.

Experiences like these create moments of joy, connection, and memories that stay with families long after the day is over. ⚾

End-of-year transitions can be tough on kids’ mental and behavioral health—but they don’t have to face it alone. 💙

At Seattle Children’s, we recognize the importance and sensitivity of these moments, which is why we’re actively researching and developing better ways to support our community. Last month’s summit brought leaders together to move this work forward.

A remarkable milestone in pediatric heart care ❤️

Seattle Children’s recently performed a rare bloodless open-heart surgery on 7-month-old Myra, who faced both a complex congenital heart defect and a high-risk blood disorder. Her family traveled from Florida to Seattle to access our nationally recognized blood conservation program.

Myra’s story highlights what’s possible when specialized teams come together to deliver life-changing care.
