This study evaluates the effectiveness of an AI-generated therapeutic storytelling video on pre-procedural anxiety and fear levels in children aged 4 to 10 years undergoing their first Skin Prick Test (SPT). The study aims to determine if watching a cognitive preparation video at home prior to the appointment reduces anxiety compared to standard care. Participants will be randomized into two groups: an intervention group watching the AI-generated video and a control group receiving standard clinic care
