8 Best Toon Scrub Tops for Nurses in 2026: Tooniforms Prints
Cartoon-print scrubs have a way of breaking the ice, especially with younger patients who'd rather focus on Mickey Mouse than the stethoscope. Toon scrub tops from the Tooniforms line by Cherokee let nurses and healthcare workers wear beloved characters like Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars favorites right on the job, without sacrificing the professional fit and function you actually need during a 12-hour shift.
At Blue Sky Scrubs, we've spent over 20 years making and curating medical apparel that balances comfort, durability, and personality. We know that what you wear at work matters, it affects how you feel, how patients respond to you, and whether you can move freely when it counts. That's exactly why fun printed scrub tops remain one of the most-requested categories we see from nurses and medical staff.
In this guide, we've rounded up eight of the best Tooniforms scrub tops for 2026, covering fresh prints and returning fan favorites. Whether you're shopping for pediatrics, the OR, or just want to add some color to your rotation, you'll find options worth bookmarking below.
1. Cherokee Tooniforms women's STRETCH V-neck print scrub top
The Cherokee Tooniforms STRETCH V-neck is the anchor pick in any roundup of toon scrub tops for a clear reason: it combines licensed character prints with a functional stretch fabric that most printed scrub tops skip entirely. Prints rotate seasonally and include Disney characters, holiday themes, and novelty patterns, so there's nearly always something fresh available.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses point to two features most often: the four-way stretch construction and the relaxed V-neck that keeps you looking professional without restricting your range of motion. The fabric blend includes spandex, so you can crouch, reach, and pivot without the top pulling across the back or bunching at the shoulders.
A top that moves with your body rather than against it makes a measurable difference by hour ten of a shift.
The material also holds its shape and color through repeated hospital-grade washing cycles, which is where a lot of novelty tops fail within the first month.
Best units and settings for this print style
This top fits naturally into pediatric units, family medicine clinics, and outpatient care settings where character prints are either allowed or actively encouraged. Holiday prints, Halloween and Christmas in particular, work well for staff who like to rotate seasonal looks when the atmosphere on the floor calls for it.
How to choose size and fit
Cherokee offers this top in XXS through 5XL, which is a broader range than most printed styles. The STRETCH label means there is some give in the fabric, but you should still size from your chest and hip measurements rather than guessing based on what you normally wear.
- If you prefer a relaxed fit or plan to layer, size up one.
- If you want a more fitted look that still allows full movement, go true to size.
Typical price and where to shop
Most Cherokee Tooniforms STRETCH V-neck tops fall in the $25 to $35 range, with price variation depending on the print and seasonal availability. You can shop them through major online medical apparel retailers.
Blue Sky Scrubs carries a rotating selection of these tops, so the prints on hand shift as new licensed and seasonal designs arrive throughout the year.
2. Tooniforms Bluey print scrub top
Bluey has become one of the most recognized characters among young children in recent years, which makes this Tooniforms Bluey print scrub top an instant conversation starter with pediatric patients. The all-over character print features the beloved Blue Heeler puppy in a way that reads as playful without looking cluttered.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who work with children consistently report that familiar characters reduce patient anxiety, particularly during procedures that kids find stressful. Bluey's wide audience among toddlers and early elementary-age children means the print lands with the exact age group that benefits most from a distraction. The lightweight, easy-care fabric holds up well through repeated washes, which matters when you're wearing the same top multiple shifts per week.
A recognizable character on your scrub top can shift a frightened child's attention faster than almost any other technique.
Best units and settings for this print style
This top works best in pediatric wards, children's hospitals, and family practice clinics where young patients make up the majority of your caseload. It also fits naturally in school nursing offices and urgent care facilities that see a high volume of children.
How to choose size and fit
Tooniforms prints generally run true to size, but check the brand's specific size chart using your chest and hip measurements before ordering. If you layer a base top underneath, size up one to maintain comfortable movement throughout your shift.
Typical price and where to shop
These toon scrub tops typically fall in the $28 to $34 range, depending on availability and where you shop. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating Tooniforms prints, so it's worth checking current stock directly.
3. Tooniforms Peanuts Snoopy and Charlie Brown print scrub top
The Tooniforms Peanuts print scrub top taps into a decades-long love for the Peanuts gang, featuring Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and friends in an all-over pattern that nurses across generations immediately recognize. This print stands apart from newer licensed designs because it appeals to patients, families, and coworkers alike, not just young children.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who wear this top often mention that the Peanuts characters spark genuine conversation with adult patients as well as kids, which gives it broader appeal than most character-print scrubs. The top is built on the standard Tooniforms construction, so you get comfortable, easy-care fabric that survives repeated washing without fading into a blurry mess. That durability matters when a print is the whole point.
A character with multigenerational recognition keeps patients of all ages at ease, not just the youngest ones in the room.
Best units and settings for this print style
This toon scrub top works well across a wider range of settings than strictly pediatric prints. It fits naturally in general medical floors, rehabilitation units, and assisted living facilities where older patients and their families are just as likely to light up at Snoopy as a five-year-old would.
How to choose size and fit
Tooniforms sizes run true to standard sizing, so measure your chest and hips and match them to the brand's size chart. If you plan to wear a base layer underneath, go one size up to keep your range of motion comfortable.
Typical price and where to shop
Most Peanuts Tooniforms tops land in the $28 to $34 range. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating Tooniforms prints, so check current stock to see if this design is available.
4. Tooniforms Disney Minnie Mouse print scrub top
Minnie Mouse is one of the most globally recognized Disney characters, and the Tooniforms Disney Minnie Mouse print scrub top carries that recognition directly onto the floor. The all-over print features Minnie in her classic polka-dot style, making it one of the more visually iconic options in the toon scrub tops lineup.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who wear this top find that Minnie Mouse's iconic status creates an immediate connection with patients across a wide age range. The character resonates with children and adults who grew up with classic Disney, giving this top broader appeal than most character prints. The Tooniforms fabric construction holds color well through repeated washing, so the print stays sharp and recognizable shift after shift.
A print that multiple generations recognize keeps the atmosphere lighter without any extra effort on your part.
Best units and settings for this print style
This top fits well in pediatric units, women's health clinics, and general outpatient settings where a cheerful, familiar character lands positively with patients. It also works in long-term care environments where residents appreciate comforting imagery tied to classic Disney nostalgia.
How to choose size and fit
Tooniforms tops run true to size, so measure your chest and hips and reference the brand's size chart before ordering. Keep these fit tips in mind:
- Size up one if you wear a base layer underneath
- Go true to size for a fitted but flexible feel throughout your shift
Typical price and where to shop
This top typically falls in the $28 to $34 range. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating Tooniforms prints, so check current stock to confirm availability.
5. Tooniforms Disney Winnie the Pooh print scrub top
The Tooniforms Disney Winnie the Pooh print scrub top brings one of Disney's most beloved characters into your workwear rotation. Pooh and his Hundred Acre Wood friends appear across the fabric in a warm, inviting pattern that feels both classic and immediately recognizable to patients of nearly every age.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who wear this top find that Winnie the Pooh's gentle, familiar imagery tends to put patients at ease more quietly than high-energy character prints do. The tone of the print feels calm rather than stimulating, which suits certain clinical environments particularly well. The Tooniforms fabric construction handles repeated washing without losing color clarity, so the print holds up through a full season of shifts.
A softer character print can set a more calming tone in settings where patient stress levels are already elevated.
Best units and settings for this print style
This toon scrub top fits naturally in pediatric units and general inpatient floors, and it works especially well in memory care or geriatric settings where the nostalgia of classic Disney characters resonates with older adults and their families.
How to choose size and fit
Tooniforms tops run true to standard sizing, so measure your chest and hips and match them to the brand's size chart before ordering. Size up one if you plan to layer a base top underneath for added comfort during longer shifts.
Typical price and where to shop
This top typically falls in the $28 to $34 range. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating Tooniforms prints, so check current availability to see if this style is in stock.
6. Marvel Spider-Man by Funscrubs STRETCH V-neck print scrub top
The Marvel Spider-Man by Funscrubs STRETCH V-neck print scrub top brings one of the most popular superhero characters into your workwear rotation. Unlike standard Tooniforms construction, this top is built specifically with four-way stretch fabric, making it one of the more functional options in the toon scrub tops category for nurses who need full range of motion throughout their shift.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who wear this top consistently highlight the stretch construction as the standout feature, since most character-print scrubs sacrifice fabric performance for the print. Spider-Man's wide appeal among school-age kids and older patients who grew up with Marvel comics means this top generates strong reactions across multiple age groups. The vibrant print holds up through repeated washing, so you're not watching it fade after the first few weeks of wear.
A superhero print that patients recognize immediately can shift the energy in a room faster than almost anything else you can wear.
Best units and settings for this print style
This top fits especially well in pediatric units and emergency departments where older children and teenagers are common. It also works in school nursing offices and urgent care clinics that see a high volume of patients between ages 6 and 16.
How to choose size and fit
Funscrubs tops run true to standard sizing, so measure your chest and hips and match them to the brand's size chart. Size up one if you layer underneath or prefer a more relaxed fit during longer shifts.
Typical price and where to shop
This top typically falls in the $28 to $36 range. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating Funscrubs prints, so check current stock to confirm availability.
7. Star Wars Funscrubs print scrub top and Tooniforms Disney Princess print scrub top
These two toon scrub tops cover opposite ends of the pop culture spectrum but both deliver strong patient engagement. The Star Wars Funscrubs top draws on one of the most recognized franchises in film history, while the Tooniforms Disney Princess top features beloved characters that resonate instantly with younger patients and Disney fans of all ages.
Why nurses like this top
Nurses who wear the Star Wars top note that it generates reactions across a wide age range, from kids discovering the franchise for the first time to adults who grew up with the original trilogy. The Disney Princess top earns similar enthusiasm in pediatric settings, where young patients often recognize characters like Cinderella and Ariel before a nurse even introduces herself. Both tops are built on reliable construction that holds print quality through repeated washing.
Wearing a character your patient already loves gives you a connection before you say a word.
Best units and settings for this print style
The Star Wars top fits well in pediatric and general adult units, urgent care clinics, and school nursing offices. The Disney Princess top works best in pediatric wards and children's outpatient clinics where younger patients make up most of your caseload.
How to choose size and fit
Both tops run true to standard sizing, so measure your chest and hips and match them to the brand's size chart before ordering. Keep these tips in mind:
- Size up one if you plan to layer underneath during colder shifts
- Go true to size for a fitted but flexible feel throughout the day
Typical price and where to shop
Both tops typically fall in the $28 to $36 range. Blue Sky Scrubs carries rotating prints from both lines, so check current stock to confirm which designs are available.
Your next shift-ready pick
Each of these toon scrub tops brings something specific to the table, whether that's a character your pediatric patients will recognize immediately or a multigenerational print that keeps adult patients at ease too. The right pick depends on your unit, your patient mix, and how much movement you need from your fabric across a full shift.
If you're still building out your clinical wardrobe, pairing a character print top with a matching scrub cap pulls the whole look together without much effort. Blue Sky Scrubs carries a curated selection of women's scrub hats that coordinate well with printed tops and hold up through the same demanding wash cycles your scrubs face. Browse the current selection, find what fits your rotation, and wear something to work that gives both you and your patients something to smile about.
