MY STORY ABOUT FACE COVERINGS!!

I have been washing my hands to stay healthy and safe from the Coronavirus germs.

I have been staying home to stay healthy and safe from the Coronavirus germs. Now I see people who take care of me are wearing masks. We will call these Coronavirus blocking masks: Face Coverings.

People will wear face coverings when they go to

the grocery store

or anywhere in the community where they may be around

other people . Wearing face coverings keeps the germs from touching

our mouth or nose . It is one more thing to keep us healthy while the Coronavirus is here.

Seeing my mom or dad

in a face covering may feel

scary and confusing . Seeing my staff

in face coverings may feel

may feel uncomfortable and sad .

When I feel sad or confused, I can remember that they wear the face coverings to keep us all safe. It is the right and brave thing to do!! I am proud of them for wearing face coverings.

And I like seeing their smiling faces when they take their face coverings off.

We still need to be careful about the Coronavirus germs, So I may need to wear a face covering sometimes.

Wearing a face covering can feel strange.

My breath may feel warm on my skin

I may feel hot under the face covering.

The elastic or ties around my ears or head might feel annoying.

And my voice sounds strange when I am wearing the face covering.

Aaaaah, I may want to take the face covering off!!!

I will be brave and keep the face covering on when adults I trust say it's important because it protects me and other people from the germs.

I know I will be able to take it off soon.

I have choices for my face covering. I can choose what feels most comfortable or is the easiest to take on and off.

I can use a bandana as a face covering.

I may feel more comfortable with a face scarf .

I can make covering my mouth and nose more fun too! I can decorate my face covering.

I can wear a face covering with a cool design on it.

Getting used to face coverings can be fun. I can put a face covering on a stuffed animal.

I can ask my mom or staff to take pictures of me in my face covering.

. What other ways could I make the face coverings more fun ….let me think…. THE END
