1. Talking to Kids About Corona
There's a lot of information, misinformation, and plenty of reasons to be skeptical about what we're hearing about Covid-19 on the news and in social media. Just because something is serious, doesn't mean we should freak out.
Sometimes those most vulnerable to hysteria are children. It's hard to figure out how to talk about serious, complicated, or scary things with young kids.
The University of Illinois School of Social Work has the answer. Click to view the comic they created to teach kids about the disease in a way that will make them feel empowered to do the right thing for their health instead of being scared >

The flurry started on Monday when the Senate released their proposed operating budget and the House released their proposed operating, capital and transportation budgets.
