Coronavirus anxiety in kids leads to big surge in interest in mindfulness app – ABC News
Sarah Hamilton is busy juggling remote learning with three kids and she knows the change in routine is making them anxious. So they’re all using a new app to help them think of positive things until the crisis eases.
Making sense of the pandemic is challenging for everyone, but for children, it’s especially hard.
Six-year-old Willow Beattie is in her second year of school and she has spent much of it learning from home.
Her dad Chris said not knowing when she will be going back to school has left her unsettled.
“She’s worried about not seeing her friends and how long the lockdown is going to go for,” he said.
She is just one of many kids experiencing heightened anxiety during the pandemic.
