Daniel: Hi Neighbor.
I'm so glad you're here.
Tigey is too.
My ears have been bothering me.
Dr. Anna said I need to go to the hospital
for an...'operation'
to fix my ears.
Did you ever have to go to the hospital?
It's my first time...
I don't know what it will be like there and...
I'm a little nervous.
Dad Tiger: It's ok to be nervous my fuzzy guy.
♪ When we do something new, ♪
♪ let's talk about what we'll do. ♪
Here... This book will show us what we'll do at the hospital.
Daniel: Ok.
Mom Tiger: The hospital is a place where doctors and nurses
work together to help you get better.
Daniel: Woah! The hospital's so big.
Dad: Mhm. Inside there are nurses, and doctors...
Daniel: Dr. Anna, right?
Mom: No, Dr. Anna doesn't work at the hospital.
We're going to meet a new doctor today; Dr. Lee.
Daniel: Do you know Dr. Lee, Tigey?
Mmm-mm.
Tigey doesn't know Dr. Lee either.
Mom: Daniel, She's very nice.
The doctors at the hospital know
just how to make your ears feel better.
♪ (light music) ♪
Daniel: What's that girl wearing?
Dad: That is a hospital gown.
It's comfy like pajamas and makes it easier
for the nurse and doctor to check your body.
Daniel: Hmm, will I wear one?
Mom: Yes you will.
Daniel: Oooh, will my hospital gown have puppies on it?
Mom: (chuckles) I don't know,
but we'll find out soon.
Daniel: Mom, Dad,
can I bring Tigey with me to the hospital?
Dad: Of course you can bring Tigey.
Daniel: What is that?
Dad: That's a mask.
The medicine inside that mask
is a special kind of air that you breathe
so you won't feel the operation at all.
Daniel: Oh.
Dad: Look Daniel, to help you get well,
the doctors and nurses use special tools.
Just like some of the tools Dr. Anna uses.
Daniel: Like this?
What does it do?
Dad: ♪ When we do something new, ♪
♪ let's talk about what we'll do. ♪
Dad: An otoscope helps doctors look inside your ears.
Daniel: Let me check inside your ears, Tigey!

Dad: (chuckles) Thank you, Dr. Daniel.
I feel better already.

Alannah: Absolutely, kids can bring a stuffed animal,
a blanket, anything that will help you to feel
comfortable while you're here.
These are hospital pajamas.
When a child comes here, they take off their regular clothes
and put these on.

Alannah: Kids can come and play
while they wait to see the doctor.

they take them on this bed with wheels to the operating room.
The operating room is a place

When a child enters the operating room
we use this special mask that goes over your nose and mouth
to help them breathe in medicine air
so they can fall into a special medicine sleep.
Sam: What is this place?
Alannah: This is the room where a child wakes up
from their special sleep.
Your mom, dad, or whoever brought you to the hospital

before a child feels really great.
