In stressful or uncertain times, it is important to keep a daily schedule for your child. A routine would create predictability, structure and in terns allowing your child to feel safe. This will dramatically decrease your child’s level of anxiety and increase their level of growth and creativity. This will build their resilience.
Rather than letting them on their screens for too many hours in a day for the next few weeks (hopefully not months). It is important to empower them to become healthy little beings and be responsible for their own health and growth.
This is a wonderful schedule which has been shared on social media. (I apologies that I could not find the source of who created it.)
I understand that outside fresh air time might not be available for some families, you can substitute it with singing out to the window and also indoor physical activities.
* Key take away - a busy child is a happy child.
