Moonbeams for Sweet Dreams

We're back!

We're excited to welcome everybody back to Corewell Health's Beaumont Children's to once again celebrate Moonbeams for Sweet Dreams. Beginning Friday, Dec. 8 and running through Saturday, Dec. 23, we look forward to seeing you in 2023!

Sensory-Friendly Night

This year, we’re introducing a special night (Thursday, Dec. 7) for families looking for a less stimulating night to enjoy Moonbeams for Sweet Dreams. Our teams are arranging a special sensory table with supplies such as ear plugs, fidgets, sunglasses and more.

This night we’ll have no flashing lights inside or outside, no microphone and our firetruck and police car friends will be parked with lights off.

Celebrating Safely

Each year, our teams remain in constant communication with our infection control team and monitor community COVID-19, RSV and flu rates. We will continue to host Moonbeams for Sweet Dreams as long as it remains safe to do so.

Event Details

Our patients will be ready for 'bedtime' promptly at 8 p.m. each night. Please plan to be on campus 15 - 20 minutes prior to park and arrive at the designated waving area.

What is Moonbeams for Sweet Dreams?

This cherished tradition started in 2017 by Beaumont Children’s nurses and child life specialists as a way of helping Beaumont’s youngest and bravest patients feel connected to their community during the holiday season.

Each December, community members from across Southeast Michigan visit the Corewell Health William Beaumont University Hospital campus at approximately 8 p.m. to shine flashlights to remind pediatric patients they aren’t alone and wish them sweet dreams.
