If you have children in your house then it becomes more difficult for you to control the whole situation. As an adult, it becomes easy for us to understand the situation and how to cope up with it. But what about our children? Are they okay with it. We bring you five ways on how you can take care of your children in this pandemic!
Talking with them
Yes, this is the best way to describe your child about the situation we are passing through. We can share about the diseases and the history of another pandemic which happened 100 years ago and how human beings become cure of it. It would also make them confident and relax at a time that we can overcome it soon. Maybe your child also thinks about it but they just don’t talk with you about this. Even if you’ve kept your children away from news about COVID-19 in the media or overhearing adult conversations I suggest don’t do this just keep them know the world it will make their understanding.
Ask them to wash their hand
Help your family avoid getting sick and spreading germs to other people by washing hands. You can make it fun to wash hand. You can also wash your hand together and sing a song with them. Tell them the necessity of washing hands. Learn them how to make bubbles with the sope. Make it fun to them I hope it works.
Mask is safe, not scary
If you’re going out in public, like to the doctor’s chamber or grocery store it’s very urgent to put your and your children’s mask on. Your children may see lots of people wearing masks over their faces. They got right or scared of it but you have to describe to them that People are doing this as another way to help keep each other safe. The masks help protect the person wearing them from breathing in germs or, if they are sick, from spreading the germs to others. You can also buy them colorful mast for them it will attract them I hope.
Keep them from using too much internet
We all know that schools are close this time. Children have to online classes. Some are so much attracted to cartoons and video games. What you can do is make a schedule for them that this particular time they on;y can your internet or tv or Netflix. We also know the bad effect of screening so just inform them about all.
Be a good helper
Because you may be working from home now, maybe busy, tired or stressed-out. Give them time by helping with their games and drawing. Learn them some more extracurricular activities like guitar, dance, piano these all are indoor chores right? You also found so many videos and online events on the internet.
