FAQs
What is the recommended age range for this set?
This set is designed for children between the ages of 3 and 6 years old.
Are batteries included with the set?
No, the set requires 2 AAA batteries which must be purchased separately.
Can the lab coat be put in the dryer?
It is recommended to hang dry the lab coat to preserve the shape and quality of the material, though you should check the care tag inside the garment for specific laundry instructions.
Is this set suitable for multiple children to play with?
Yes, it is excellent for cooperative play, as children can take turns being the doctor and the patient.
Can I write on the name tag with a permanent marker?
The name tag is designed to be reusable. It is best to use a dry-erase marker or a non-permanent pen if you want to change the name later.
Troubleshooting
Stethoscope sound effects not working
Verify that fresh 2 AAA batteries are installed correctly according to the polarity markings in the compartment.
Lab coat appears wrinkled
Use a low-heat iron or a handheld steamer to smooth out the fabric, taking care to avoid any plastic buttons or trim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get started, simply install two AAA batteries into the stethoscope unit using a small screwdriver to open the battery compartment. The lab coat is machine washable; it is recommended to wash it on a gentle cycle and hang it to dry to maintain the integrity of the fabric and seams. The plastic medical tools should be wiped down periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap to keep them hygienic. Note that the costume is sized for most children ages 3 to 6 and may not fit older children.
