In a volatile environment of unexpected change, we are taking time to pause, breathe, reset, and go again, just like the lyrics suggest. Our partners are incredible and to have successfully launched 9 interns into the child life world in just over a year, with interns 10 & 11 starting tomorrow for fall 2026, is a crazy statistic to be proud of. We will be back, ready to keep pouring into the next generation of CCLS - for now we will celebrate the two students starting with us, support them as they rock their internships through November, and then take a big deep breath.

We can’t NOT share this photo as we are bursting with joy for these ladies and so incredibly proud of them as they get one step closer to making an impact on our profession! .12 and Syanna are both first generation Master’s earners, with Syanna’s stole representing her Hmong culture, handmade by her mom, and Sara sporting the First Gen stole, creating mental health awareness within her own Hispanic communities. Not a pictured was who was celebrating her daughter’s accomplishments but showing her daughter how to be both a mom and someone who can go after great things! Congratulations to our Spring ‘26 interns on their completing their Master’s program! Next up, exam!

Messy May today with some color monsters using some deep breathing and syringe painting. Might take a week for the liquid water color to come off my hands, but it sure was fun!

Always uplifting and inspiring when we get together and share the incredible work that our MN CCLS community is accomplishing. Thank you to our speakers who shared their work and their hearts, to those who joined in-person and online, and CONGRATS to our interns for finishing (or almost finishing) their internships!!!

Snapshots from some impactful intern-planned sibling/family sessions. Using guided loose parts and the Invisible Web, sessions built upon themselves to focus on always being connected while still being separate, unique, and proud of individual strengths. As we see often, siblings can start to define themselves through the family experience of supporting one member with high needs, and opportunities through play to remind them that they can celebrate themselves as their own person are so powerful! Even parents need the opportunity to reflect on who they are and what they are uniquely good at! Great work .12 supporting these sibs and family!!
