Summary
This research is a three-group, randomized controlled experimental study designed to determine the effect of two different therapeutic interventions applied during blood sampling on pain, anxiety, and fear levels in children aged 5-7 years. Children participating in the study will be randomly divided into three groups: 1. Group (Experiment 1): Distraction method using betta fish observation 2. Group (Experiment 2): Distraction method using hand puppets 3. Group (Control): Routine clinical practice (without any therapeutic intervention) Before, during, and after blood sampling, children's pain level (FLACC scale), fear level (child fear scale), and anxiety level (child anxiety scale) will be evaluated.

Interventions
Before, during, and after blood sampling, the children's pain level (FLACC scale), fear level (child fear scale), and anxiety level (child anxiety scale) will be assessed. The obtained data will be compared using statistical analysis methods. Group 1 (Experiment 1): Distraction method using betta fish observation
Before, during, and after blood sampling, the children's pain level (FLACC scale), fear level (child fear scale), and anxiety level (child anxiety scale) will be assessed. The obtained data will be compared using statistical analysis methods. Group 2 (Experiment 2): Distraction method using hand puppets
Before, during, and after blood sampling, the children's pain level (FLACC scale), fear level (child fear scale), and anxiety level (child anxiety scale) will be assessed. The obtained data will be compared using statistical analysis methods. Group 3 (Control): Routine clinical practice (without any therapeutic intervention)
