Children's Medical Center Dallas
The Children’s Corner Gift Shop
Effective March 20, our hours will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday - Sunday in response to social distancing efforts. We will be closed from noon to 12:30 p.m. each day for team members to eat lunch.
Shoppers will now be greeted in front of the store where their shopping order will be taken and then processed by a gift shop employee. This is an effort to minimize the number of people entering the store at one time and the number of individuals touching the merchandise while still allowing team members and families to purchase much needed items.
Orders can also be placed by phone and delivered to the patients room.
The Children’s Corner Gift Shop is located in the Tower D lobby area, next to Seacrest Studios. All proceeds support Children’s Health.
Amazon Locker
Children’s Medical Center Dallas is the first pediatric hospital in the country to offer Amazon Lockers, secure, self-service kiosks where our patient families can pick up Amazon.com deliveries 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without leaving campus. Lockers are conveniently located next to the Dining Car Café on the lower level of the hospital.
Learn more about Amazon Lockers and how to use them to send a gift.

Prohibited Gifts

Mylar balloons (latex-free) can be given to patients. Flowers in vases are permitted in specific units on the Dallas campus. Please ask your unit nurse before ordering.
Flowers are not permitted at the Plano campus.
