To find the right doctor’s case, our checklist and the product recommendations below will help you.
Have fun shopping and playing!
- Doctor’s cases and their contents are offered to you in wood, plastic or fabric.
- Wood is the most robust and durable option.
- Especially for toddlers we recommend wood, as they are often still have very gross motor skills.
- Most often, however, you will find plastic. The material is easy to clean and has a low weight. However, it also breaks more quickly, so you should look out for hard plastic.
- Fabric is the least common. It is flexible, but not so easy to maintain. But fabric feels very pleasant and is environmentally friendly.
- Especially with wood and plastic you have to pay attention to good workmanship, so that for example no splinters come out.
- Make sure that the doctor’s case is adapted to the age of your child.
- For example, there should be no small parts under the age of 3 , otherwise there are a risk of suffocation.
- Children up to 6 years of age should be supervised when playing with medical cases.
- In addition, the case should not have any sharp edges or corners if you want to avoid injuries. The contents are also important.
- The enclosed description, which informs you about the use and dangers, can also help you.
- The material must also be free of harmful substances and plasticizers . You must pay attention to test seals (e.g. TÜV). A bad smell or a cheap foreign import can also point you to harmful substances.
- A certain basic equipment should be included in every doctor’s case. This includes a stethoscope, syringe, fever thermometer and an otoscope for the ears.
- For small children, such a smaller scope is sufficient, otherwise excessive demands can follow. If necessary, a hammer and blood pressure monitor can also be included.
- From kindergarten age, the equipment may already offer significantly more to prevent boredom. Smaller items such as plasters, tweezers and a medical chart can now be added.
- As close to reality as possible replicas of the equipment and bags are also available.
