Try to create a schedule. Children are comforted by a routine. If they are developmentally able to contribute to the creation of a routine, please let them be involved.

It’s okay to have a relaxed schedule. Take advantage of the new normal to have more downtime.

Because teachers won’t be able to create very many hands-on activities during this time, try to find a way to bring the lessons they do send to life. If you can’t think of a way, reach out to your child’s teacher for suggestions.
