A big building full of helpers who fix bodies. Read it together, at your pace. Every page is written in your child's voice.
1. I am going to the hospital. A hospital is a big building where helpers take care of bodies.
2. Hospitals can be busy. There are long halls, elevators, and many doors. A grown-up stays with me and knows where to go.
I might hear beeping machines, rolling carts, and voices. Some lights are very bright.

3. First we check in. I might get a bracelet with my name on it. The bracelet tells everyone who I am.
The bracelet is smooth plastic. It might feel new on my wrist. I get used to it.

4. Then we wait, and helpers come to see me. They might check my temperature or my heartbeat. They tell me what they are doing.
The thermometer might slide on my forehead. A clip might sit softly on my finger with a red light.

5. I have choices. I can ask helpers to explain each step. I can choose which arm or which finger when there is a choice. I can say "please tell me first."
6. Honest part: some checks might pinch or feel strange for a moment. Nobody will trick me. I can always ask, "Will this hurt?" and helpers will tell me the truth.
What could happen at my hospital visit?
The helpers do some checks and then we go home.
I stay longer and rest in a hospital bed.
I meet more than one helper.
We don't know yet — we can ask when we get there.
💡 Hospital visits are different for everyone. Asking questions helps us know the plan.
7. When the helpers finish, they tell us we can go. The bracelet comes off. We go home, and I can rest. The visit is over.
In the app, your child can choose what happens next, rehearse lines out loud with Spark, and try different endings — including hearing a kind "no" and being celebrated for respecting it. Parents can also create fully personalized stories.
