Medical Play — Pretend IV Pole (for little dolls)

Description: 

This is a small decorative pretend play IV pole is a perfect tool for helping kids to become familiarised with medical equipment and help to remove some of ten fears and anxieties that can come with new experiences. Play therapy can help a child understand their world and the world around them and help them make sense of it. This can be especially helpful for kids that are soon to be heading into the hospital, kids that are in and out of hospital, or kids that have sick loved ones that have been in hospital. Adding one of these to the toy box of a medical or hospital waiting room can help to open meaningful dialogue and chat. 

Some people also use IV poles at home to manage illness, or use a feeding tube to help deliver their food another way that isn’t through the stomach. Help kids to learn about differences in a really empowering way. 

These miniature IV poles also make a great gift or display item in medical wards, facilities, receptions and offices to help create a dialogue for conversation and as a fun way to highlight the power of healthcare.

For some people, an IV pole represents sickness, and hospitals — but for others, that IV pole has been a tool that has helped them get their lives back again. 

This makes a fantastic display item, and will also fit well into any reception or hospital children’s play area.
