Best Doctors Kids 2020 | Mum's Grapevine

Kids’ doctor kits and costumes are timeless hits when it comes to the toy box, and they are as fun as they are educational.

Not only are medical playthings super useful for tending to teddy’s sniffles or re-attaching dolly’s left leg, but they also inspire loads of imaginative play, help improve language skills and teach kids about medical tools and procedures.

And let’s face it, there are few things cuter than watching tots nursing injured toys back to health.
