Kids Life Update Amid Coronavirus
A little kids life update amid coronavirus after 9 weeks of lockdown
Today is our day #64 of quarantine and we want to share a little kids life update amid coronavirus!
As our regular readers know, we left Milan on the 23rd of February, when the authorities closed the schools in Lombardy, mainly because mom needed help to carry on working. At that time, we thought we would have spent a week, or maximum two, at grandma’s and we would have been able to return home very soon. The following week, Northern Italy effectively went in the lockdown to tackle the coronavirus pandemic and we got “stucked” in the mountains were we are still.
How is our kids life amid Coronavirus? First of all we are fine (and this is a big thing). Secondly, we believe we are very lucky here: we have a private garden (unlike in Milan) and we leave with our beloved grandparents. Our weeks pass by fairly regularly even if there are difficult times. While mom and dad are working remotely full time, Anna and Alice are attending school lessons on weschool and doing their homework. With Aurora it is more complicated because of her age, but she seems very happy to spend more time with her mom and her sisters.
Overall, the girls have more downtime than before and they are eager to fill it. One of the funniest things we’ve done with Anna and Alice is that they chose to do something that they wanted to learn or do but they’ve never really had the time for before. Here is the list of our favourite things to do at home with kids amid coronavirus.
Can’t wait to read yours and try them! So, write them here!
Kids Life Amid Coronavirus – Cooking
What the girls like the most is cooking. With grandma’s help they baked delicious cakes that then we eat all together. Our favorite is the apples pie!
Things to do with kids during Coronavirus – Joga for kids
One of the most recent activities they tried is yoga for kids. Various yoga instructors are offering yoga classes for children on Facebook or on Youtube. We tried Cosmic Kids Yoga which is using stories kids already know and love, but there are many more. Just google it!
Kids Life Amid Coronavirus – Reading
Okay! Not as funny as cooking or doing yoga for kids, but still: a good book is a good friend. And having different ages each of the girl chooses the most appropriate one!
Things to do with kids during Coronavirus – Board games
After dinner or during the weekends, since we stay at home, we started to play board games. Each of the girls (except Auri) in turn choose a puzzle and we do it all together – so far we’ve done 5 puzzles! Daddy has resumed his favorite board game from when he was a kid “master mind” and he plays it with Anna. Not to mention Monopoly, The Game of Live and the more traditional Tombola!
