Event Details
Families are invited to a heartwarming and educational “Teddy Bear Clinic,” where children can explore child‑friendly medical tools, learn about the Child Life Program, and then guide their own stuffed animals through a playful check‑up experience.
Join us at the New Hope Public Library for a free, family‑friendly “Teddy Bear Clinic” designed to ease children’s fears about medical visits through play, learning, and imagination. We're excited to welcome pediatrician and former Library Foundation Board Member Dr. Kym Middleton.
Afterward, the children will step into the role of caregiver as they bring their own teddy bear or favorite stuffie through a gentle, pretend medical check‑up. This interactive experience helps build confidence, encourages empathy, and turns a routine health concept into something fun and approachable.
The event is free to attend, and youth of all ages are encouraged to participate. Bring a stuffed friend and enjoy a morning of learning, comfort, and creativity.
