Books to help your child understand COVID and going Back to school


If your children are anything like mine. They’re worried about going back to school during this COVID virus outbreak and so are you. Many parents are struggling with the DECISION to send their children to crowded, non social distancing, learning supplies sharing, no soap having and no fresh air, public facility. You think I’m being dramatic? See for yourself the CDC guidelines.
