Kids take the care of their stuffed animals seriously, so when there’s a boo-boo to be mended, they want to know how to make their beloved friends feel better.

TEDDY BEAR DOCTOR: A Let’s Make & Play Book offers kids age 3 to 8 a fresh, fun approach to imaginative play with creative craft projects for making essential equipment and tools, including a thermometer and a syringe made from common household items, a T-shirt lab coat, a stethoscope and ophthalmoscope using pipe cleaners and bottle caps, and a kennel built from a cardboard box.

The book includes four sheets of colorful stickers that complement the creative process. Kids can make a lab coat name tag, label patient files and medicine bottles, and even fashion an eye patch for those unlucky plush pets that may have had a nasty encounter with a child’s real dog.

TEDDY BEAR DOCTOR: A Let’s Make & Play Book is sure to appeal to every owner of a beloved stuffed-animal pet.
