Watching it together is a great way of encouraging your child to enjoy books and the whole process of storytelling. The activity is also great for stimulating their imagination as they listen to the the narrator tell the funny tale of a teddy bear trying to be a doctor.
How to extend the magic
Have some fun together playing doctors and nurses with your child. Let your child take your temperature, check your pulse and apply a bandage (you could use toilet paper). Once you're on the mend, swap over and let your child be the patient.
