Kids had an opportunity this past weekend to learn about healthcare - while playing with toys.
On Saturday, September 22 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the Virginia Zoo partnered with doctors and nurses from Pediatric Specialists, a Children's Medical Group Practice of CHKD, to host a special Teddy Bear Clinic.
Children were invited to bring their teddy bears and other stuffed friends to the Zoo for a "check-up" and stitches.
The kids learned about doctor visits and healthcare in a comfortable and non-threatening environment.
