The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation just released 20 animated shorts hosted by imaginary friends to help kids with cancer better understand cancer-related topics – from diagnosis and MRI’s to radiation and hair loss.
The series, created thru RPA Advertising, “speaks to kids about both the medical and emotional aspects of cancer in an effort to make them a little more comfortable during a very difficult experience.”
The three films included here (by Roof, Giant Ant, and The Mill) are three of our favorites. Head over to The Imaginary Friend Society to watch all 20 shorts.
