TALK TO THE KIDS IN YOUR LIFE

Children are very perceptive, even when their daily routines are not turned up-side-down! They are probably feeling anxious and scared, just like many adults. Here are some tips from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) on how to talk to children so that you can alleviate their fears and limit their exposure to the virus.

TEACH GRATITUDE

Mr. Fred Rogers told us: "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping."
