Today we honor the 1 in 10 with a Rare Disease Day 💜🩵

At 3 months, Aidon was diagnosed with Lissencephaly, putting him in the rare disease category, as Liss affects on 1 in 100,000 kids worldwide.

In the US, a rare disease affects less than 200,000 people, and while individual diseases are rare, roughly 1 in 10 people live with a rare disease.

With Aidon's diagnosis affecting roughly 1 in 100,000 - that means that out of the 8.2 billion people worldwide, roughly 82,000 have Lissencephaly.

Bring the magic of winter right to your kitchen table!

Create a calming sensory snow jar with your kids using water, glitter, and a touch of imagination ❄️✨ Just fill a clear jar with water, add white or blue glitter, a few snowflake confetti pieces, and a drop of glycerin or baby oil to make the snow swirl slowly. Shake it up and watch the magic!

It’s a peaceful, hands-on craft that helps with focus and fine motor skills.
