Making sure your child doesn't dread injections

How to make sure your child doesn't dread injections

Whenever I need to take Tyler for more inoculations, I pack a little rucksack for him with a drink inside, and his favourite bear, Little Tom, comes along and gets his jabs as well. Afterwards, despite being a little sore, he wants to be sure that Little Tom's not in pain and that distracts him from himself. They get to share the drink too!
By Sam Richardson, mum to Tyler, aged 3
