To participate in Teddy Bear Hospital:

- Bring your best teddy bear buddy,* and check in to the Museum as usual.

- Check in to the Teddy Bear Hospital at our welcome table. Depending on the volume of visitors, we’ll give visitors timeslots to return or take drop-in visits.

- Move through the stations with your best bear buddy, getting a full check-up for your friend.

- Check out to receive your bill of health as you exit and enjoy the rest of your day at the Museum!

*If you don’t have a best-bear buddy yet, no worries! There will be a number of donated Teddy Bears for visitors to pick up as they arrive.
