Doctor Teaches Kids About Diabetes

I teamed up with The McClure Twins, Ava and Alexis, to play my version of Mad Libs I call “Med Libs”. They provided answers to all the prompts I threw at them, then I worked those words into a story educating them about Type 1 Diabetes. We used their suggestions like kiwis, plumber, and giraffe to tell the story of a pig named Nia who gets diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes by Dr. Cockroach. While Nia is initially upset by the news, Dr. Cockroach lets her know that Type 1 Diabetes isn’t her fault, she was born with it, and there are many ways she can mitigate the symptoms to live a happy and healthy life.
