Many adults are wondering how to discuss the coronavirus in a way that will be reassuring and not make kids more worried than they already may be. Fortunately, there are some great resources from our youth wellness partner, South Bay Families Connected, that can help. Please visit the following links to the SBFC website for:
- Tips on how to talk with our kids about the coronavirus.
- Featured tip from Child Mind Institute: "Take your cues from your child. Invite your child to tell you anything they may have heard about the coronavirus, and how they feel.”
- Strategies for mindful parenting during this stressful time, and well beyond.
- Support and resources to help our kids cope with stress and anxiety in healthy ways.
These resources pages, and more, can also be accessed from this month’s free SBFC e-newsletter. You may also visit our own PVPUSD Families Connected webpage for additional youth wellness resources on a wide variety of topics.
