February 21: Stuffie Clinic
It’s time for a check-up—but this time, YOU get to be the doctor!
Join us on Saturday, February 21, from 1–4 pm for Stuffie Clinic, where children have the opportunity to step into the role of medical professionals and care for a stuffed animal patient.
Participating children will receive a free stuffed animal (while supplies last), generously donated by PetSmart- Anderson and Muncie, and guide their stuffed animal through a playful “check-up.” Children will learn about common medical equipment and what each tool is used for in a fun, hands-on way. This interactive experience helps build confidence, reduce fears about doctor visits, and spark curiosity about health and wellness.
Stuffie Clinic is organized and led by Ball State University Child Life students and is sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, Muncie. Museum admission is free for all guests from 10 am–5 pm.
