The Doc is In!


On Tuesday morning children and their parents and caregivers snuggled up to watch an episode of Doc McStuffins and make their own stethoscopes and doctor bags. After decorating and filling their medical bags, the kids were able to meet with some of our resident stuffed animals who were feeling a little "under the weather". Everyone left feeling a little bit better!



If you want to read more or you're feeling a bit sick, here are some books to snuggle up to!

This book was awesome because: Greg was supposed to go to Spag Union Military Academy. But after a few thoughts, Greg’s father didn’t want to ship him off to Spag Union anymore.
