This resource helps explore the calming benefit of soothing activities. Discuss with your child which activities they find most calming, then tick them off or add your own ideas. Consider when these activities might be most helpful - whether before, during or after the hospital appointment. This resource equips your child with soothing coping tools, helping them feel confident and ready for their hospital visit. 

Print recommendations:

We recommend printing these using your home printer to draw and write in your own soothing activities.
