What does a kid love more than summer break...an extended one! But this break isn’t what they were hoping for! Being stuck at home doing schoolwork via computer, not being able to spend time with their friends. Proms and graduations cancelled. Summer camp and sports cancelled or delayed. That’s no fun!! But these kids are doing it!!
They’ve taken to texting and video chatting each other. Making Tic Tok and YouTube videos. (I’ve seen a lot where older kids are recreating old pictures from when they were tiny.) Spending time with their families playing the very old fashion board game. Some are even teaching their parent Common Core Math!!
These kids are resilient, they come back stronger. And they’ll know how to deal with this if it ever happens again. And if they are anything like my kid they’ll have made it through these hard times with a new understanding of their parents.
So let us thank our children for being the awesome beings they are! Thank them for taking a break from gaming to play monopoly with us. Thank them for the extra craft projects we now have to hang in our house. Thank them for being awesome mini humans! And thank the old kids for sacrificing their proms and graduations so we can keep the spread of the virus low. And thank them all for finding new ways to help each other and their fellow man out! You kids rock!
