Use these tips to guide your conversation:

• Focus on what your child will see, hear, taste and feel at the hospital.
• Offer realistic choices, such as which toy your child wants to bring along, or which ear he wants the nurse to look in first.
• At the hospital, explain what the nurse or doctor is doing using terms your child understands; be as non-threatening as possible.
