Research shows that siblings who have a brother or sister coping with serious illness often suffer from extreme anxiety and worries. Together, we hope the Sibling EnCOURAGEment activities can alleviate stress experienced by siblings and foster communication with trusted adults.

Being a sibling is an important job! The Beads of Courage Sibling EnCOURAGEment activities are designed to help siblings Record, Tell and Own their Story of Courage as they journey alongside their brother or sister who is coping with a serious illness.

The Dolphin Activity features a printed activity, small amount of additional activity beads, string and a QR code that will link the sibling to a resource page designed just for siblings!

We invite siblings to join our pod of support through this wonderful activity!
