How should we engage kids in activities during lockdown??

Question

Accepted Answer

With the pandemic, school students are spending more time at home with the rest of the family. This provides opportunities as well as challenges. There is an opportunity for bonding. Quality family-time for unwinding, having fun, and sharing experiences can help children experience a sense of belonging.
At the same time, being home-bound generates challenges. Ensuring that everyone gets personal time and personal space for some part of the day can prevent the often-crowded home-bound experience from becoming overwhelming.
Additionally, having simple rules and a structured routine at home can be very beneficial. This could include: a fair distribution of chores; respecting each other's personal space; and being present for family-time. During these turbulent times, behavioral issues are to be expected among children and adolescents. They need to be responded to gently, with patience and love.
