COVID-19 Info for Kids
Your children may be asking questions about what is going on in the world today regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. It can be hard to answer these questions appropriately. I found a lesson on Pebble Go that explains what the virus is, what a pandemic is, and how to protect yourself. If you're interested, just type in COVID-19 on Pebble Go, which can be found through BCPSOne.
