The free annual Teddy Bear Clinic presented by Puget Sound Fire returns from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 2 at Station 74, 24611 116th Ave. SE, in Kent.

“Bring your favorite teddy bear or stuffed animal for a checkup,” according to a Puget Sound Fire Facebook post. “Our firefighter/EMTs will provide free checkups for teddy bears and kids in a relaxing environment designed to help ease children’s fears of medical exams.”

The first 400 children will receive a free teddy bear. Children will get a chance to tour a fire engine and aid car and spray water through a fire hose. Additional fun activities will be provided at the fire training center.
