Småkompisar visited Artipelag!

We made our very first visit to Artipelag - the newly opened exhibition hall located in the Stockholm archipelago. Whether you love art or not, this is a must do if you are in the area. Stop by the museum to see the exhibitions or just to enjoy the surroundings, the views and architecture. We suggest that you make it a day trip, the museum - inside and outside - is inviting and fun to both children and adults. We, Småkompisar and friends, enjoyed our visit and hope to come back soon! 

Exhibitions
3 June until 30 September 2012
"Platsens Själ" - The Spirit of the Place.

Friend Of The Month, June 2012!

We would like to introduce you to our dear friend, Malin! She is our Friend of the Month in June! Besides all her many good qualities, she is truly a lovely, warm-hearted person and a great friend!

We had a coffee the other day and a chance to catch up on life in general. We all need a break now and then and a good hearty laugh to relieve stress and tension in mind and body. Then times flies and we have to head on to all the must do's in our everyday lives, and it is only for us to say; Thank you Malin for good friendship, a coffee and a nice chat! Enjoy June, your month! :)

Grief shared is half grief, Joy shared is double joy...

Graduation Time with Friends and Family

It’s graduation time! Traditions may vary between countries, but the joy is universal and mostly about celebration. One of the traditions in Sweden is to hang flowers and toys around the necks of the graduates. We suggest you decorate and surround your graduate with lots of Friends - Small Friends!

Being a Friend to Those Who Need It Most

We are pleased that so many BUP-clinics (Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics) are using Småkompisar to initiate a conversation with children, teenagers and parents.
It is important to us being a Friend to those who need it most.

A few comments from BUP-clinics on how they use their Småkompisar...

Children and teenagers coming here find them irresistible! When they are restless, they have something to do with your fingers. When they are sad, they hug them. When they are angry it might happen that they throw them around! In other words, they go with all their emotions!

We have given out our "Friends" to all clinical psychologists, so that they are available on the tables. We noticed that many children pick them up and hold them. Even adults.
They are good for many uses and to stay focused. One or two usually ends up in someone's pocket on its way home! :) Many of my colleagues just love these little Friends!

I work as a psychotherapist with adolescents. I noticed that many children like to squeeze a "little friend" when they talk about any difficult subjects. 

You will find Småkompisar at BUP in Linköping, Karlshamn, Karlskrona, Mjölby, Hagfors, Örnsköldsvik, Bollnäs, Hudiksvall, Sollefteå...
