They worry about disease. They worry about germs. And even if they don’t worry about those things now, who’s to say they won’t start? So how are we supposed to explain the Coronavirus to kids with anxiety or OCD?\n\n\nThat can be tricky. But if your child is school-aged and doesn’t live in a bubble, they’re going to hear lots of talk about it. In fact, it seems like that is the main topic of conversation around the lunch table and at recess.\n\n\nIn this week’s podcast episode, I talk about how to explain the Coronavirus to kids with anxiety or OCD.\n\n\nAlso, in this week’s Kids Youtube video I am offering you some help with this difficult topic. I talk to kids and teens directly about what the Coronavirus is and how to not let panic set in.\n\n\nClick Here to Watch the Kids Youtube Video: \nhttps://www.anxioustoddlers.com/how-to-explain-the-coronavirus-to-kids/\n\n\n***\nThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be used to replace the guidance of a qualified professional.\n\n\nVisit my website at http://www.ATparentingSurvival.com\n\n\n \nSign up for my weekly email newsletter:\nhttps://pages.convertkit.com/740ba8cd83/92109b7172\n\n\nTake one of my online classes:\n \nTo view the entire online school library, go to:\nhttp://www.ATparentingSurvivalSchool.com\n\n\nClasses include:\n\n\nHow to Crush Social Anxiety\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/crush-social-anxiety\n\n\nParenting Kids with OCD \nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/child-ocd\n\n\nCrush Moral OCD in Kids\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/moral-ocd\n\n\nTeaching Kids to Crush Anxiety\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/crush-anxiety\n \nHelping Kids with Anxiety or OCD Through Difficult Behaviors\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/difficult-behaviors\n\n\nHelping Kids Who are Scared to Sleep\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/scared-to-sleep\n\n\nHandling Sensory-Based Anxiety\nhttp://www.ATparentingsurvivalschool.com/p/sensory-anxiety\n\n\nLibrary of Live Anxiety and OCD Classes (20 hours of class replays)\nhttp://www.ATparentingSurvivalschool.com/p/library\n\n\nUltimate list of helpful anxiety products:\nhttps://www.ATparentingsurvival.com/reduce-child-anxiety/ \n\n\nTo join my private Facebook group visit:\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/ATparentinganxiouskids/\n\n\nInterested in my AT Parenting Community Membership?
