Caring for Each Other- By Sesame Street
https://www.sesamestreet.org/caring
Sesame Workshop launched the Caring for Each Other initiative—a commitment to supporting families throughout the COVID-19 crisis. The initiative’s landing page, SesameStreet.org/caring is home to resources designed to provide comfort, manage anxiety, and foster learning at home.
Today we’re excited to tell you about another piece of this initiative created especially with providers and caregivers in mind: Health Emergencies, a new topic page on Sesame Street in Communities.
The page includes:
New animations and printable activities that playfully teach prevention and offer opportunities for comfort and together time.
Articles for caregivers to help answer tough questions and provide self-care strategies.
Activity bundles that families can use to build skills and have fun together.
