    • Find a restroom stall, or wait until no one is around, and pull it down for a moment.

Ask your child about Social Distancing, and the following questions.

  • Why it is polite to socially distance right now?
    • So I do not get or give someone Covid-19.
  • What should I do if someone is standing too close to me?
    • Casually step back to get 6-feet away.
  • Is it okay to get close to your good friends?
    • Try to keep yourself more distanced than you used to be.
