The nurse is attempting to take the blood pressure of a four-year-old child. The child is afraid of the sphygmomanometer. Which action by the nurse will help allay the child's feelings of anxiety?

1. Explain to the child: I am just going to take your blood pressure.
2. Have the mother hold the child still while the nurse takes the blood pressure.
3. Allow the child to handle the equipment and then demonstrate how the equipment works.
4. Tell the child: This won't hurt. I've had it done a bunch of times.
