Description
A children's doctor kit with a stethoscope that really works.
More than a doctor kit, it's their turn to be the one who makes it better. Ready for teddy's sore ear, a bandage for every boo-boo, the week before a real appointment and hearing their own heartbeat for the first time. Eleven intentional pieces in a vegan-leather Gladstone bag.
The wipe-clean patient form is where they learn to write their own name, the eye chart that spells out "you are kind, smart, unique, so loved".
It can be unpacked and repacked, carried to Nana's, loved for years and handed down to a sibling. With hand-sewn felt, FSC beechwood and brass fittings. A roomy 30cm x 22cm bag leaves space for their own special toys. Ages 3+
A child remembers their first doctor kit.

Care
Wood Care wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid soaking in water, and if wood feels dry, a light rub with beeswax or food-grade mineral oil will restore its lustre. Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight.
Felt CareThe wool felt pieces are delicate by nature spot clean with a damp cloth and a drop of gentle wool wash if needed. Do not machine wash, wring, or tumble dry. Lay flat to air dry away from direct heat. With gentle handling, the felt will hold its shape for years of play.
Vegan Leather CareThe gladstone bag is crafted from vegan leather with brass fittings. Wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or marks avoid harsh cleaners or alcohol-based products. To maintain the bag's shape, store upright when not in use. The brass fittings can be gently buffed with a dry cloth to keep their shine
Frequently asked questions
What age is the Doctor Kit designed for?
Ages 3 to 6 is the sweet spot, although many children play with it well into primary school. The instruments are sized for small hands and the play naturally deepens as they grow. Please note the kit contains small parts and is not suitable for children under three.
Does the stethoscope work?
Yes. The stethoscope is a real, functional acoustic instrument-little ones can press it to a chest and hear an actual heartbeat. It's designed for imaginative play and early learning, not medical use and we recommend adult supervision at all times when your child is using it.
What are the instruments and bag made from?
The wooden instruments are crafted from FSC-certified beechwood with smooth, finishes. The felt accessories are hand-sewn from 100% wool felt. The gladstone bag is premium vegan leather with brass fittings, a fully lined interior, and reinforced corners.
Will this Doctor Kit last?
The wooden instruments are built to handle years of enthusiastic play, the felt pieces are hand-sewn for longevity and the gladstone bag is designed to outlast the early childhood years with regular play and care.
How will my child learn from playing with this Doctor Set?
Children use pretend play to rehearse things that feel unfamiliar, and a check-up sits high on that list. A child who has listened to a teddy's chest a dozen times knows what the cold disc feels like before anyone points one at them. We wrote more about what pretend doctor play looks like at each age, and how to use a kit before an appointment, here.
Where is the Doctor Kit designed & made?
Designed in Australia, ethically made using FSC-certified beechwood, wool felt and vegan leather with brass fittings.
