San Francisco’s Exploratorium is offering activities that will help kids understand what a virus is, and how we can protect ourselves against it.
During the lockdown and quarantine, kids may have a lot of questions about why they are at home, and what the coronavirus is. The San Francisco’s Exploratorium website provides cool explanations in the form of crafts to help kids understand viruses better in an easy, fun way. For instance, there is a video about how soap inactivates Coronaviruses. There are details on how the virus functions using soap films which will be very useful and interesting to learn. Kids will learn why washing hands is effective, and that they should be careful with other viruses as well.
These crafts are a great and interactive way to learn and spend time at home.
