Browse through this list of ideas for activities with your student! Have something to add? Email Beth Mayr at bmayr@cmoq.org.

We encourage you to go through Coronavirus with Kids, a resource to help children understand this disease. This comic from NPR could help, too, as well as this YouTube video.

Also, consider decorating your house with hearts to show support for health care workers! If you do so, send photos to Beth Mayr at bmayr@cmoq.org and we'll share them on social media.
