Staying Connected During Coronavirus

Staying Connected during Coronavirus

We all miss being together at school, and we know it's hard to not spend time with friends and teachers. Now is a great time to be creative about your social time. Here's some ideas of things you can try to feel connected :

  • Virtual play dates or study groups - have your parents help you set up a study chat or video recess with a friend

  • Write letters - use lots of color to create a cute letter or card for someone and send it in the mail

  • Join a live online activity - there are events right here in our town that you can participate online! Check out some of the ideas below (and always check with your parents first!)

  • Find a way to help someone - there are so many ways to help others right now ... and helping others helps you feel connected and happier (BONUS!)! Find out about a need - whether it's someone nearby or someone far away - and figure out a way to help. We'll post some ideas below.
