As if anyone needed another reason to love Jennifer Lawrence!

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire star brought some Christmas cheer to the kids and families at Kosair Children's Hospital in her hometown of Louisville, Ky. 

Twitter pictures from Jen's Dec. 22 visit show the Oscar winner, dressed casually in a plaid shirt and jeans, smiling happily alongside patients and staff alike. 

In one touching shot, the 23-year-old actress holds hands with a young boy in what appears to be a U.S. army themed hospital room.

Jen also posed for a sweet picture with a smiling child smiling ear-to-ear from her hospital bed, and another of herself grinning alongside two equally happy young ladies.

She even stopped for a snap with the hospital staff, crouching down in the front of the group (who looked very appreciative of Katniss Everdeen's holiday visit!)

Kosair Children's Hospital tweeted their thanks to a Jennifer fan account on Dec. 23, writing, "Thank you for visiting the kids yesterday. We know it meant a lot to them and brightened their day."  

It certainly did. Props to Jen for making this holiday season extra memorable for all of those kids!
