GetInline

Kids can bring their teddy bear, doll or other favorite friend for a "beary" special checkup. This annual event allows kids to become doctor-for-a-day while they visit several stations like the Teddy Exam Room, Tough Teeth, Beary Fit and more. Kids get hands-on experience checking their Teddy's health while learning proper oral hygiene, how to listen to the heart with a stethoscope, keeping Teddy fit with stretches and moderate exercise and administering a band-aid for the occasional boo-boo.

Kids and their VIPs (Very Important Patients) will also enjoy a visit from Santa Claus who will be onsite for photos (parents should bring a camera), plus holiday and science themed activities and crafts.

Teddy Bear Checkup is free with the purchase of a general admission ticket.
