Keep a routine

With schools closed and classes going online many students are staying up late and waking up late. It is beneficial to keep the same school schedule while still being at home. That helps with somewhat separation between work/study hours in the day time and family/relaxation time in the evening.

Physical Exercise

Being indoors for 2 months is not good for kids. It’s important for them to go out safely and exercise or play some sports with precaution and social distancing.

Video Socializing

Kids are missing on the social experience of being around their friends and classmates. Maybe they can themselves set up or maybe parents should help set up video social dates with their friends and classmates.
