Sick and injured teddy bears, or those just needing a check up, will be treated at Navicent Health's Teddy Bear Clinic at the Museum of Arts & Sciences in Macon Saturday.

Children's stuffed animals will receive bandages, X-rays, height and weight checks and blood pressure checks as the kids learn what happens when a person visits the hospital, according to a news release.

The clinic will take place 10 a.m.-2 p.m. As part of First Saturday, admission is free to the museum, located at 4182 Forsyth Road.

Teddy bears will be given to the first 500 children, and refreshments will be provided.
