Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are proving they're more than just a couple of pretty faces.

The newlyweds graciously took time out over the weekend to visit young patients at Health Sciences North's pediatric unit in Ontario, Canada.

"I can tell you the visit was really appreciated by the kids, their parents and the staff on the unit," hospital spokesperson Dan Lessard said in an email to Sudbury Northern Life. "Mr. Reynolds and Ms. Lively were wonderful with the children."

Added local resident Sarah Lavallee, whose 3-month-old son is currently being cared for at the hospital, "It's something I can tell him about when he is older."

A rep for the hospital tells E! News "the visit was a private, low-key affair and we wanted to respect that so we did not take any official hospital photos or provide any media coverage."

Reynolds is in town filming director Atom Egoyan's Queen of the Night.
