Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if watching videos and blowing paper pinwheels can reduce pain and fear in children undergoing venipuncture. The participant population includes hospitalized children aged 3-6 years old undergoing venipuncture for the first time. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does watching videos reduce pain and fear during venipuncture in children? 2. Does blowing paper pinwheels reduce pain and fear during venipuncture in children? Researchers will compare a group watching videos and a group blowing paper pinwheels to a control group receiving standard care to see if these interventions reduce pain and fear. Participants will: * Watch their preferred cartoons on an iPad during the venipuncture process. * Blow paper pinwheels to distract themselves during the venipuncture process. * Be accompanied by a family member who will help in holding the child and providing comfort.
