Help your children cope up with COVID-19 Stress


This is a stressful time for everyone, especially the children and elderly. Quarantine or no social activity is a lot to take for a child. Hence, you might notice a slight difference in your child's behavior such as being more clingy, anxious, withdrawn, angry or agitated.
Here's how you can be supportive of your child in these testing times.
Make time for your child: Sit with your child and listen to their concerns. Address their concerns kindly and reassure them. Make opportunities for the child to play and relax inside the house. Pamper them more, give them extra love and attention.
Make a routine: Make sure that your child concentrates on the studies and also has some leisure time. Make sure to create a regular routine and schedule. Create a schedule and a fresh new environment for your child that includes school/learning as well as time for playing safely and to relax.
Keep them informed: Talk to your children about the current situation and what is happening. Tell them what is going on and how they can prevent themselves from getting ill. There is a fine line between keeping them informed and scaring them. Make sure you don't cross that line.
Look for the positives: Keep assuring them that everything will be fine, give them hope so that they don't get overwhelmed by the pandemic.
