Melissa & Doug Veterinarian Role Play Costume Set
James Herriot, the famed author of many books about caring for assorted critters in the British countryside, wrote of his fascination with dogs: "I could never quite take dogs for granted. Why were they so devoted to the human race? Why should they delight in our company and welcome us home in transports of joy? There were so many different shapes, sizes and colours, yet they all had the same fundamental characteristics. Why?" We don't know, but we're glad they are - and we're glad that dedicated medical professionals like Herriot keep them healthy for us. If your child is a fellow admirer of the vets of the world, he can give animal medicine a fun pretend try with the Melissa & Doug Veterinarian Role Play Costume Set, a top-quality dress up set with everything your creative kid needs to "treat" fuzzy plush patients. The Veterinarian Role Play Costume Set includes an authentic-looking machine-washable blue lab coat, face mask, and surgical cap, but that's not all: when it comes time to treat a stuffed dog with a broken leg or a stuffed kitty with a cough, your child can examine his patients with a stethoscope with sound effects, cover their wounds with a toy bandage, and give them medicine with a toy syringe. A name tag is also included, for your child to personalize. And finally, your child's first patient comes with the veterinarian costume set: a cute stuffed puppy! Playing with the Melissa & Doug Veterinarian Role Play Costume Set lets your child explore adult roles in a fun way and engage in creative social play with other kids. And who knows - you might have a future James Herriot on your hands! For ages 3 and up; batteries for stethoscope not included. WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
