DOC McSTUFFINS is a big hit around these parts (although we were a little late to the party), and as such, the fact that DISNEY JUNIOR has announced that September 6th will bring the Season Two Premiere is pretty exciting. Before that happens, Doc will hit the road in The Doc Mobile, a 27-foot Custom Airstream Trailer, for a Nationwide Tour that gets started in Boston on August 18th. Learn more about the tour below…
Doc’s Mobile Clinic Tour:
Themed “So Much You Can Do…to Take Care of You!” the initiative is inspired by Disney Junior’s acclaimed “Doc McStuffins,” the animated series that models good health and compassion through stories of a young girl, a would-be doctor, who cares for her ailing stuffed animals and other toys. The Doc Mobile features an area for kids to perform a “check-up” on their own toys plus other activities and age-appropriate health and wellness lessons including nutrition and physical development and fitness.
Doc McStuffins will be on-hand to greet fans at select stops along The Doc Mobile tour route. During the multi-city tour, kids and parents will also have the opportunity to meet real-life doctors from the Artemis Medical Society, an organization of more than 2500 female African-American physicians from around the world who formed their group after seeing a reflection of themselves in “Doc McStuffins.” Recognizing the opportunity to further inspire young girls, the group serves to nurture, mentor and provide the foundation necessary to create a diverse physician workforce.
And of course I have to include a picture of my daughter Addie playing Doc McStuffins here at Rock Father HQ. She said I’d be getting a shot…
