Something is always cooking at the Children’s Cancer Hospital at M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. Last December eight pediatric patients worked together and cooked up a masterpiece of gooey icing, colored candies and imagination. Here’s their recipe — you might want to add it to your collection:

GINGERBREAD HOUSE 8 cups of creativity 4 cups laughter 6 tablespoons ginger 2 pints concentration 3 cups cooperation Dash of cinnamon 2 pounds royal icing 4 boxes of shortbread shingles 1 cup friendship 3 cups determination Jelly beans, peppermints, gumdrops and life savers as needed Mix the creativity, cooperation and friendship. Then blend in the laughter, concentration and determination. Season with the ginger and cinnamon.

Apply candy and shortbread shingles with the royal icing.

Their over-sized house, still sitting in the Children’s Art Project craft room, was photographed in detail. It comes to you as a Christmas card and a Fitz and Floyd ceramic cookie jar — a treasure that will become a family heirloom!

This charming “mansion” is typical of the artwork produced by the pediatric patients from the Children’s Cancer Hospital. Art class is fun! It distracts the children from their difficult cancer treatments and stimulates their creativity. The class also builds friendships with other children who are experiencing cancer treatment.

Art class teaches many techniques: collage, water color, pencil drawing, sugar and spice architecture and others.

Art class begins a process for the Children’s Art Project because all our products start with the children’s art. Transformed into products that you can purchase, their artwork is the catalyst for the funds generated to underwrite programs benefiting the children. From the in-hospital education program to the many college scholarships for current and former patients, or the summer camps, rehabilitation ski trip, Child Life Program and more, your purchase of items in this catalog helps us make life better for children with cancer.

Romika Smith bubbles with energy despite the fact that she is in her second year of treatment for Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL). That treatment is never fun, but Romika has managed to find many positive things at the Children’s Cancer Hospital. It was rough at first, she says, but she got used to the routine and met lots of people. She loved the in-hospital school and especially the great teachers. And of course, there was art class. Romika is part of the team that created the Gingerbread House. Her intense concentration as she worked on the project is evident in photos.

Whether applying icing or sprinkling sugar on the finished product, it was fun to be a sugar and spice architect!

Romika has experienced other programs funded by the Children’s Art Project, including Camp Star Trails and Camp A. O. K. The best part is meeting other kids with cancer who understand what she is going through. She has moved on to a public school for her eighth grade year. English, reading and science are her favorite subjects.

When she’s not in school, the series of Cheetah Girls books are favorites. She also loves to talk on the phone with her friends, shop, go places and stay busy.

And is Romika planning for a career? She is still thinking, but being a medical examiner is very interesting to her. Her mother says one of the most important things Romika has learned from cancer is to make goals in life and to know that great things are possible for her.

Every Tuesday, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, pediatric patients in the Children’s Cancer Hospital assemble for art class. It is part of the in-hospital school curriculum, but school has never been this much fun! The art class combines many of the ingredients in the Gingerbread House recipe. Directed by the Children’s Art Project’s creative wiz, Leon Benavides, art volunteers work with the children to encourage their creativity. These talented volunteers are all former teachers or artists in their own right. They bring a wealth of knowledge to the children, for they are the master chefs and the pediatric patients their apprentices.

Cooperation and camaraderie bond friendships among the children as they share paint, markers, paper, scissors or other supplies. Laughter often erupts, as they chatter while they work. Each class revolves around a theme (Valentines, winter scene, flowers, Christmas trees, etc.), but within that simple boundary, their creativity is encouraged and nurtured. The children concentrate on the techniques taught by the art volunteers — water color, pencil drawing and collage to name a few. For all the children, the class is a break from their routine in the hospital — a moment to forget they are cancer patients. The art classes begin a process that circles back to the patients. When a child’s artwork is chosen as a design for the Children’s Art Project, they feel a great sense of pride. They know that the sale of their product contributes to the funding of many programs benefiting all the pediatric patients.

The art volunteers are a small group within the larger, diverse group of volunteers who make the Children’s Art Project a great success. In the 2008 fiscal year, 453,000 hours were donated — the equivalent of 217 staff members.

Volunteers are the heart of the Children’s Art Project.

We couldn’t do without them!
