It wasn’t until just recently that I figured out what Doc McStuffins, it’s a really fun relatable show for kids on Disney Junior. My kids just love it, and they’d already seen it before I “introduced” them to it. So Zoe was really excited to watch it and see so many different episodes. Doc McStuffins Friendship is the Best Medicine has five full length episodes and 2 11 minute stories highlighting the doc’s favorite toys.
Doc McStuffins Friendship is the Best Medicine EPISODE LIST:

· CAUGHT BLUE-HANDED – When a mysterious rash of blue spots breaks out among some of the toys in the clinic, Doc traces the "Mystery Pox" back to Donny’s toy monster, Glo-Bo who had been finger-painting earlier in the day and forgot to wash his hands. Glo-Bo is voiced by Jim Belushi.

"Doc McStuffins" is an imaginative animated series about Doc McStuffins, a six-year-old girl who communicates with and heals stuffed animals and broken toys out of her backyard playhouse clinic. It’s a show that to me shows children it’s ok to talk to your toys. My son talks to his toys, sings to his toys, gives his toys baths. Watching Doc McStuffins with him made me think of how he plays. Zoe keeps the talking in her head but I can see that she has fun with her toys too, plus Zoe gets much more into the role playing. Actually, I’ve noticed as Miles gets older he’s starting to get into the role playing too. Role playing is healthy, so give them a white jacket and stethoscope and encourage them to play doctor with their toys.
