Other Resources

---

Keeping your kids busy probably isn't the only thing you have to adjust to right now. Here's some other resources that may help during social distancing and school closures. None of these are sponsored, just stuff I knew about or found, so if you have suggestions, add to the list.

This page from 510 families provides a lot of helpful tips on social distancing, dos and don'ts for play as well as tips on how to talk to your kids (though chances are their friends already did it - my toddler came home from preschool the other day yelling "CORONAVIRUS"). Ignore all the bay area specific items...unless you're in the bay area, of course.

Do you just want to know more about the risks to kids associated with COVID-19? Visit the CDCs page
