***Made Just for TODDLERS***

For little children, going to the hospital can feel unfamiliar, confusing, and sometimes scary.

Getting Ready for My Surgery (Made Just for TODDLERS) was thoughtfully created to help toddlers understand the hospital experience in a gentle, playful, and age-appropriate way before their big day.

Written by a board-certified anesthesiologist with over 15 years of experience, this interactive picture book introduces toddlers to many of the sights, sounds, feelings, and routines they may experience during surgery and anesthesia — helping turn fear of the unknown into familiarity and comfort.

Children will explore:
• hospital bracelets, gowns, and special hats
• blood pressure “squeeze hugs”
• glowing finger lights (pulse oximeter) and stethoscopes
• sleepy mask with sweet smells
• balloon breathing game
• recovery time with snacks and popsicles

With interactive prompts, playful “I-spy” activities, and warm reassurance throughout, this engaging read-aloud encourages connection, conversation, and emotional preparation between children and caregivers.

This book helps support:
• anxiety reduction before surgery
• emotional readiness for hospital visits
• positive healthcare experiences
• toddler-friendly medical learning
• confidence and cooperation during the surgical journey
