Pandemic and parenthood - ParentehoodDiaries #20

Covid-19 Pandemic has impacted every household. Our generation has not seen anything like this before. While its a new experience for us, for kids, especially for kids under 4 years, since everything they do is new and pandemic is no different.

The way they welcome or accept this 'newness' is far different than how we do.
We are aware of what's happening around, and they are least bothered. They be like how they have been. Sometimes I feel, if I'm being more than aware of the Covid topic! Courtesy the social and electronic media.
Kids are not aware of all this and they just play as if they are born to do so. At least I have observed my kids closely for last one year. I cannot count how many new things they did, how many new games they played, within the four walls, within the available resources, within the toys they have at hand and sometimes even without any toys! Creativity at its best. Amazing to see them grow by coping up with the circumstances.
I'm not at all worried that their schooling is delayed, as long as their learning curve is well crafted.
