Feel your Feelings Chart

We want to acknowledge the likelihood of an emotional impact on both children and adults stemming from the Coronavirus. I am of the belief that if we listen carefully to what our children are asking, and not provide more information than necessary, we can help calm fears and redirect their energy in a positive way. We see the following resources as good starting points for approaching these conversations, at an age-appropriate level, if needed.
