teddy clinic

We ventured out to the National Museum of Health and Medicine.  I can remember an event similar to this when Aiden was a bit younger than Keaton… It's so simple and so darn cute to see kids marching around ready to get a check up for their teddy bears.  They upped the ante and made it even cuter by giving the doctor's a checklist and a lab coat.  Captain Abearica and Raph the puppy got their shots out of the way right away, then they got a full vital check, a good teeth cleaning, a nutrition consultation, and a fitness regimen (which included a game of twister and some fun darts!).  The craft table had a fun reflector and doctor's bag full of fun stuff. We also looked around inside the museum where we found some interesting medical exhibits and some "creepy" stuff according to Aiden (it's not every day that your six year is pointing out a fermented scrotal elephantiasis).  They earned squishy microscopes for completing all the teddy missions.
