Wikipedia
Operating theater
An operating theater (also known as an operating room (OR), operating suite, or operation suite) is a facility within a hospital where surgical operations are carried out in an aseptic environment. Historically, the term "operating theater" referred to a non-sterile, tiered theater or amphitheater in which students and other spectators could watch surgeons perform surgery. Contemporary operating rooms are usually devoid of a theater setting, making the term "operating theater" a misnomer in those cases.

Surgery can be an extremely daunting time for most people, let alone a child, we wanted to think of ways that would make the trip( from the ward to the operating theater) more enjoyable for the younger children.
