2/5 As for us - it is for them, silence & secrets do not protect children, but honesty & openness do. There are things we can do to help build resilience, like talking to kids & reassuring them that they are safe. #WeWillGetThroughThis #cavabienaller #COVID19

3/5 Open discussion helps kids to sort fact from fiction, to look for ways of having some control, and to be mindful of their media consumption.

4/5 Continue to show children how to express gratitude for the efforts of everyone helping us get through this time, from #HealthCareHeros working to keep Canadians healthy, while saving lives on the front lines of #COVID19… 👩‍⚕️🧑‍⚕️🏥🚑

5/5 To the #EssentialWorkers keeping grocery stores, pharmacies & hospitals open and stocked. This is a living lesson in the many roles people play all across 🇨🇦 to keep our society running. #COVID19 #AttitudeofGratitude
