Advice for families to support learning and family togetherness during this time:
Things you can do to support learning.
Reading to your kids counts! It’s a great way to stay connected and keep learning going without feeling like a burden. Try audiobooks from the library or Audible, too.
Playing games with cards, dice or money allows your kids to practice math facts without realizing it.
Puzzles, LEGO, blocks, tangrams, tinker toys, pickup sticks, yo-yos, art supplies —these are nice alternatives to the iPad if you’re looking for them.
And we’ve learned that a few weeks or even a couple of months will not see a big decline in skills. It’s okay to focus on play and family togetherness.
It’s a stressful moment for all of us. It’s also a time of pulling together. Our wish for everyone is safety, love, and support for one another.
