Nowadays, Schools are fully reopening in most parts of the country. It’s time for parents to prepare themselves and their kids with simple back-to-school safety tips during this pandemic.
Young kids by now surely know how to wear a mask and how to use a sanitizer but there is so much more we need to train them for before entering a classroom setup.
Sharing some basic tips that I am keeping in mind, While I am still in two minds whether parents send their child to school this academic year or not. But if they do so, then they won’t be sending their child without fully preparing them this way.
1) Communicate to kids and apply everyday precautions
Most kids are aware of covid-19 effects. Just talk to them clearly about the situation and encourage them to do their duties to stop the spread. Every child should know and understand how to keep themselves and others protected.
2) Teach proper mask handling
Now, most of the kids are in the routine of wearing a mask, but they still don’t know how to handle it properly. Parents should teach kids to handle the mask with care. For wearing the mask, they should handle the ear loops or tie strings and wash their hands immediately after wearing it.
3) Hand Washing and Sanitizing
Encourage the concept of washing hands with soap regularly. The perfect choice is to put a sanitizer in the child’s bag in a way that it’s easily accessible. Kids should know the usage of sanitizer correctly to prevent the spread of germs.
6) Maintaining social distancing
Most of the children take classes from home, so they may not be aware of how to practice social distancing. The best step is to teach them about social distancing.
