Los Angeles: Jennifer Lawrence surprised kids at Kosair Children's Hospital in her hometown of Louisville, Kentucky. on Wednesday.
This seems to be a holiday tradition of hers as the 'Hunger Games' star visited the same hospital last year on Christmas Eve and on Dec. 22, 2013.
Lawrence also stopped by Shriners Hospitals for Children back in August when she was filming 'X-Men: Apocalypse' in Montreal.
