[Handmade] A roundup of tool ideas you can use for playing doctor

stethoscope

Let's play doctor! DIY stethoscope

A stethoscope—the thing doctors use to listen to heartbeats—is the classic symbol of a doctor, right? You can actually make one easily with a plastic bottle and a headband.

However, this idea uses an iron, so be sure to make it with an adult.

Cut off the mouth of the plastic bottle, then press the cut edge against a hot iron to melt and round it.

Wrap white tape around the headband, then connect the headband and the plastic bottle with yarn.

After that, decorate it however you like and it’s done! Try holding the headband to your ears and play with it.

Day 3 of the doctor play series! We’re making an ointment container! By stuffing tissues inside, it won’t get crushed even if it’s squeezed hard.work#cardboardEcoRecycleHandmadeHandmade#OuchiMonte#crafts#EducationalPlay#WorkingGirl#HandmadeToys#StayHomeTime#CardboardCraftscardboardRole play#DoctorPlayTopical medication

When you go to a dermatology clinic and the like, you’re often prescribed tubes of ointment.

Here’s an idea for making that kind of ointment tube out of cardboard.

Peel off the top layer of the cardboard, roll it into a cylinder, and glue it.

Flatten and seal one end, then stuff tissues inside.

Leave the other end unflattened, glue on an oval-shaped piece of cardboard to close it, and attach a cap made by rolling thin cardboard and sticking it onto the oval.

Decorate the tube to look like medicine, and you’re done.

Make various kinds of ointments and prescribe them according to your patients’ symptoms.

Medication Notebook

[Easy] A man in his late twenties to early thirties makes a DIY medication record book using MUJI’s passport memo

The medication record booklet you need when receiving medicine.

If you’ve ever been to a hospital, you probably have at least one.

While digitization has been progressing recently, for pretend play it’s better to have a physical booklet.

Prepare a notebook in your preferred size, print the necessary pages found in a real medication record booklet, then enlarge or reduce them to fit your notebook and paste them in.

Finally, write your name, and it’s done! You could also write the names of medicines on label stickers and actually stick them in as you play—that might make it even more fun.

toothbrush

Take care of your teeth! How to fold a toothbrush / Origami / ORIGAMI Tonkazoen

Let’s make a toothbrush out of origami—perfect for when kids want to play dentist! In this origami, creating crease lines is especially important, so take your time with each step.

Once you’ve made the creases, simply fold in the edges, roll it up to make it long and thin, and then form the brush part.

Toward the end the paper will overlap and get stiff, so if a child is trying it, an adult should give them a hand.

To keep the folded parts from coming undone, secure the end with double-sided tape.

You can also make small cuts in the brush section to make it look even more realistic!

Brushing-play with a hippo toy on Cavity Prevention Day

When we think of playing doctor, stethoscopes and syringes come to mind, but some kids want to be dentists too, right? For times like that, here’s a great idea: a hippo toy you can use to practice brushing teeth.

Connect two tissue boxes to make a mouth that opens and closes, and stick paper teeth on the inside.

The best part is that you can actually draw cavities and erase them.

There’s clear tape over the teeth, so kids can draw cavities with a water-based marker and then rub them off to make them disappear.

Draw the hippo’s face to finish it off cute!

Next, stick three round stickers onto the bandage.

Finally, draw Anpanman’s eyes and mouth with the black pen, and you’re done! It’s a fun idea you can use even when you don’t have character bandages on hand.
