Here are some tips indicated by the WHO (World Health Organization)<\/strong> to avoid the anxiety that, in these days of forced quarantine, could arise in children:<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

1. Children can respond to stress by expressing their emotions differently<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

For example, they may become more eager for contact, more anxious, more lonely, angry, agitated. Respond to your children’s reactions in a way that is encouraging and supportive, listen to their emotions and concerns<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

2. Children need adult love and attention in times of trouble<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Give them extra time. Sometimes engaging in a creative activity, such as playing, drawing, or cooking<\/a> together, can facilitate this process. Children feel relieved in a protected environment where they can express and communicate their feelings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

3. Remember to listen to your baby, speak kindly and reassure him<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

4. If possible, create opportunities for play and relaxation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n

5. Children should be as close as possible to their parents or guardians and their families<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

It is not recommended to separate children and families as much as possible<\/strong> . If this separation occurs, for example in the case of hospitalization, regular contact should be ensured through the telephone or video calls scheduled twice a day or through other means appropriate to age (eg social media).<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

6. Maintain your daily routine and planned activities as much as possible<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Or create new ones in a new environment, including school or learning activities and time for play and relaxation.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

7. Talk to your children honestly<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

Explain to them what is happening and give them clear information on how you can reduce their risk of getting infected by the virus by<\/strong> choosing your words carefully for them to understand, depending on their age.<\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

8. This also includes the possibility of informing them, in a reassuring way, of what could happen if a family member or the child himself, for example, should feel unwell and have to go to the hospital to be treated by doctors.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

If your children have concerns, addressing them together can ease their anxiety<\/a><\/strong> . Children will observe adult behaviors and emotions as a model for how to manage their emotions in difficult times.<\/p>\n\n
