Summary

Watt bumps his bulb at the play park and makes his first trip to the hospital. Nurses, a doctor, and a check-up turn an unfamiliar place into a manageable one. Reassuring rather than scary - useful before a first check-up.

Viewer safety

All ages

Watt takes a small bump and goes to the hospital - the tone is calm and reassuring throughout.
