How to Speak with Children About Coronavirus?

It is very important to remember that children look to adults for guidance on how to react to stressful events. If parents, caregivers, teachers seem overly worried, children’s anxiety may rise. Adults should reassure children that health, school, social services staff are doing their best to ensure that people throughout the country stay healthy and safe.
