For Kids & Parents
Being a kid is hard enough, but being a kid with alopecia can be down-right difficult.  Fortunately there are some fantastic organizations that offer support, friendships, and fun to kids who are dealing with this disease.  There is the Children's Alopecia Project (the photo at left is from their camp), the I'm a Kid Foundation, and Locks of Love.  There are cool dolls for kids of all ages, as well as web sites and coloring books.

Children with Hairloss Print E-mail

childrenwithhairloss Children with Hairloss is another helpful organization for kids with alopecia.  Here is a direct quote from their mission statement:

"Our Organization was created as a resource for ALL CHILDREN who have medically-related hair loss. It is our mission to empower these children to become whole again by making hair available to those who may be financially challenged and might otherwise not have a means of obtaining the hair they want and need.

Our goal is to assist as many of these children as possible in changing their lives by improving their outlook and empowering them with a degree of self confidence that will allow them to face the world with renewed self esteem.
Our mission is to cover heads and heal young hearts."

They go on to say that:

~Our organization offers assistance in the form of hair replacement to children with any form of short or long term medically related hair loss for chemotherapy, radiation, burns accidents and all types of Alopecia, etc.~


For those who meet their requirements, they may be able to provide free hair replacements and complete care kits up to once a year until the age of 21!

If your child would like to apply for a hair replacement, please visit their website for more information.

Timez Attack is an amazing new video game exclusively for kids to easily learn multiplication tables. It's as beautifully rendered and entertaining as any top video game, yet as effective as endless flash-card drilling. We include a link to it here only because we have seen it work wonders. Ellie's 7(!)y.o. nephew, who is in special tutoring for his grades, just learned all the times tables (2-12) in a couple months. And he begged to play almost every day. They have a free version as well, so there isn't any reason not to try it if you have a child struggling with multiplication, or one who will be facing it in school soon.
