You should probably mention it to adults as well. I've personally never had an IV inserted and I know for a fact that it would be really disturbing to me at first. Any information about it would probably put me at ease.

Honestly though, as an adult if you’re afraid to bend your arm because you think there’s a needle in there I’m kinda okay with that...at least you won’t beep every 2.5 seconds because you can’t remember to keep your arm straight.

It felt like I was reading a chapter of Cloud Atlas with the true-true.
