The Team Building Event
We coordinate with children’s hospitals and other charities to match sponsors who want to provide a Cheeriodicals gift box for every child within a given hospital or charity.
We deliver all the materials, tools and instruction to the sponsoring company’s meeting location.
The event is custom designed to fit the needs of the sponsor, including the number of team builders participating (20 – 1,000+), the hospital or charity supported, as well as meeting time requirements.
At the core of these team building activities is a unique combination of ‘teamwork required to build the Cheeriodicals’ and sharing how the event provided cheer to a hospital or charity full of children!
The Hospital Delivery
Following the team building event, a small group of team building participants (5-10) will have the opportunity to personally deliver gifts boxes to hospitalized children.
We coordinate all the details involved in making the gift box delivery to the hospital, Ronald McDonald House or other charity.
Two Men and a Truck transport Cheeriodicals gift boxes from the team building location to the hospital. The Cheeriodicals team and hospital staff organize the gift boxes so they are ready to be delivered when corporate teams arrive.
Teams never forget the experience of personally hand-delivering Cheeriodicals to eagerly awaiting children and their families. Delivering a gift takes only a few minutes but the memory created has lasting impact for everyone involved!
The Cheeriodicals Gift Box
Each Cheeriodicals Gift Box contains items specially curated and approved by Child Life Specialists and children’s hospitals.
Children’s Cheeriodicals are designed for multiple age groups (Preemies, Infants, Small Children, Youth, Tweens, and Teens) with age appropriate and gender specific magazines, coloring books and activity books, crayons, colored pencils, games, toys, puzzles, crafts, and stuffed animals.
They’re packed so full that many team building participants wonder if everything will fit. That’s part of the challenge and experience – to pack a perfect box!
The box shown here is a Youth Boy box designed for a boy 6-8 years old. You can see all of our children’s Cheeriodicals at our Cheer Up Gifts Store at cheerupgifts.com.

How long do events last?
It depends on the number of team members and the number of gift boxes your team builds but in most cases the “Cheeriodicals Assembly” event at your meeting location lasts an hour and the “Cheeriodicals Delivery” event at the hospital or Ronald McDonald House lasts an hour. These events can be held the same day or different days.
How many people do we need to hold an event?
We have facilitated events with as few as 5 people and as many as 1,500. There really is no ideal group size and because our system is so well organized, the only limiting factor for a corporate team’s size is the actual meeting space.
Is there a minimum number of boxes we need to assemble?
Our goal is always to assemble and deliver enough boxes for every child in a hospital or Ronald McDonald House or to the majority of Veterans in a VA Medical Center. The minimum number of boxes we can help your team assemble is 80 because of how the age groups are divided. If a hospital has 300 inpatient pediatric beds, we want to build and deliver at least that many gift boxes. We have had teams build enough for 6 hospitals at one time so there’s really no limit to the number your team can build!
How do the completed boxes get to the hospital?
Two Men and a Truck, a national moving company, donates their time to the hospital/facility by picking up and delivering the assembled Cheeriodicals from the team building event location to the hospital/facility.
How many people can visit a hospital and make a delivery?
In most cases children's hospitals allow 4-8 people from your team to distribute Cheeriodicals to their patients. Some hospitals allow room-to-room deliveries while others allow children to leave their rooms to pick up the boxes in a common area or playroom. VA Medical Centers typically allow 12-15 people from your team to distribute Cheeriodicals room-to-room to their patients.
Is our team allowed to take photos of patients with their boxes?
In most children's hospitals and VA Medical Centers photography is allowed by a dedicated photographer with a pre-signed photo consent from a parent or Veteran. We work with the hospital PR and medical staff to handle getting those photo releases signed. Generally smartphone pictures are not allowed and we always defer to hospital photographers to take photos when available.
