An Unexpected Dose of Strength
Manage episode 467068467 series 3482079
Sammy is heading to his 8-year check-up with his dad, and Ozzie the octopus is coming along for support! Sammy’s dad reassures him that there won’t be any shots—but surprise! The doctor recommends a flu shot to help keep him healthy. At first, Sammy feels nervous, but with his dad’s calming counting technique and Ozzie’s encouragement, he finds the courage to face his fears.
Along the way, Sammy meets a joke-telling nurse who keeps him laughing and a super knowledgeable doctor who teaches him cool facts about staying strong and healthy. By the end of the visit, Sammy realizes that getting a shot isn’t as scary as he thought—and that a little bravery (and a few jokes) can make all the difference!
This fun and reassuring episode helps kids understand what to expect at a check-up while reminding them that sometimes surprises aren’t so bad after all!
