On Purim, my boys are allowed to eat 4 of the nosh they collect. On shushan Purim, we put everything onto the table and select 4 noshes to keep and we put everything else (not homemade) into a huge basket and bring it to a hospital for nurses and outpatient children and parents of inpatient children to enjoy. This idea came to me from all the times I was with my little one in different hospitals in different neighborhoods and states and felt lonely and hungry and sad. (thank you to the strangers in the hospital last pesach for sharing their food with me!)
