Discovering World Hearing Day 2026
Description:
The Kids Ear and Hearing Health and Discovery Centre teams, Perth Children’s Hospital Audiology Department and University of Western Australia Audiology students are hosting a fun activation to engage children and their families attending the hospital to provide education and share resources. Children will be able to participate in story time, do a slime and a colouring in activity whilst learning about the ear. Audiologists will stop by to chat with families, where we will show them inside an ear with a video otoscope and with a model of an ear. The team will also share resources to research undertaken by The Kids, more information on otitis media and share the hearWHO app.
