Engaging and informative for the kids

This app was recommended by our radiographer after my young child was too scared to enter the X-ray room.

The app strikes a great balance of being engaging, fun and informative for a young audience.

Importantly, parts of the app contained real-life videos following children going through various types of imaging procedures. My child really related to all this and our second visit to re-attempt an X-ray was blissfully smooth.

Thanks very much to the RCH for making this great resource available!

Fantastic!!

My son paediatrician recommended this app to help with his anxiety regarding medical imaging. He looooves the game, understands how everything in the app and at the hospital works and it’s great as a conversation starter without having him on the defensive. Brilliant!!! Fingers crossed it will do the trick!
