Lifting children's energy
November 09, 2020 00:00:00
Life of children, especially in urban areas, has been depressing as they have been mostly confined to homes since the outbreak of the coronavirus. They can't meet friends nor can they play outside. Rather, they are doing the same things every day - online classes, reading and preparing lessons, using electronic gadgets, and taking similar kind of foods.
Many children said they have already been bored and a higher possibility of surge in coronavirus infection during the winter may make them more depressed. The pandemic is like a trauma to most children since many families are also suffering financially. There should be some serious exercise on how to make children's life better today and tomorrow.
