Medical Supplies
Doctor's Bag Craft and Learning Activity
 Use this doctor's bag craft to teach children about what doctor's do and the equipment they use. This is a great craft for children who might be nervous about visiting a doctor for the first time. Show your children each item in their doctor's bags and tell them what it is called and what it is used for. Challenge them to see if they can find the doctor's equipment on their next visit to their doctor's office.
What you will need: Construction Paper or brown card stock (Heavy paper), crayons, glue, and scissors.
 How to make a paper doctor's bag:
1. Fold a piece of brown construction paper in half and cut out a doctor's bag shape so that the bottom of the bag is on the fold. The bag will open like a file folder. (Patterns for this craft is available to members.)
2. Cut two handles for the top of the bag from the same paper.
3. Cut a red cross shape from red construction paper and glue it to the front of the bag. You can use white paper and have your children color it red. (Use the red cross to discuss the history of the Red Cross Organization.)
4. To make the insides of the bag trace the bottom half of the bag onto another sheet of folded paper. Cut it out and glue to the inside of the bag around the bottom and side edges to make two pockets.
5. Use clip art to print out medical supplies onto card stock. Cut them out and stick them in the pockets. Label the pockets where each item should go. This will help children learn the names of each item. You can also write the names of the items on each item so the children can match the items to the names on the pockets.

God-Aids Band-aids with Bible Verses
These bandages look like real bandages on one side, but contain a Bible verse on the other that will help heal people's souls. Children can give the bandages to people who need them. If there is a sad face on the bandage, they can give the bandage to someone who is sad, and the Bible verse on the bandage will help the sad person. There are "God-aids" for people who are sad, scared, worried, sick or hurt, and tired.
The patterns for this craft are available to members only on The Resource Room.
