Riya Patel created a YouTube channel and website called MedTechForTots to educate children about common medical tools and machines. The YouTube channel contains 8 videos describing tools like blood pressure monitors, stethoscopes, and x-ray machines. Riya also built a website using Weebly that hosts the videos and includes a photo slideshow and blog explaining what each tool does. The goal is to reduce children's fear of doctor visits through increased medical knowledge.
