Talking to Children About COVID-19 (Coronavirus)
-
Remain calm and reassuring.
-
Children will react to and follow your verbal and nonverbal reactions.
-
What you say and do about COVID-19, current prevention efforts, and related events can either increase or decrease your children’s anxiety.
-
If true, emphasize to your children that they and your family are fine.
-
Remind them that you and the adults at their school are there to keep them safe and healthy.
-
Let your children talk about their feelings and help reframe their concerns into the appropriate perspective.
