Every child should  have a childhood full of play and laughter.

We bring play and laughter to hospitalised and disadvantaged children, to those who are temporarily or permanently deprived of a carefree childhood. In 2003 we started the clinic clowns in China’s largest children hospital.  At the moment we focus on Greater Beijing area.

Be a doctor, send a smile…

Wellbeing of play and laughter

All children NEED fun and play time. It is crucial for their development and well being, in fact so crucial that this right has been enshrined in the The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. This convention is the guiding framework of basic human rights to which every child everywhere is entitled.

Article 31: every child has the right to engage in play and recreational activities, to participate in cultural life and arts.

Testimonies

  • “Uncle Clown is very popular here but he comes only once per week. Only a few patients can enjoy his show since our hospital is really large and wards are dispersed widely.”

    Dr Wang, Physician at Beijing Children Hospital

  • ” A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove…but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child…”

    A wise person, at Children Hospital in Boston

  • ” We don’t have any time to play with the children and they indeed need such playing time. You have brought us so much happiness, especially the Clown show.  Children really like it…”

    Nurse Wang, Nurse Wang at Beijing Children Hospital

    Judith Mwai, Playtime Program Coordinator at Magic Hospital
