Coronavirus prompts many families to rethink sending their children to school. Homeschool Panda is here to help.

At every stage in your child’s life, it is important to keep them safe from disease and harm. Taking simple precautions to keep your loved ones protected is something we should all practice especially during flu season and the ever-looming Coronavirus outbreak.

• Start each day with good hygiene wherever you are and maintain a clean sanitized space
• Wash your hands with soap and water thoroughly
• Cover your mouth and nose when you cough and sneeze with your arm
• If you feel sick, stay home so that you don’t get others around you sick
• If you feel like your symptoms are starting to get worse seek medical attention
• Be mindful of not to touch your face and surfaces such as handrails, buttons and touch screens (high-touch surfaces)
• Take immune-boosting supplements such as elderberry syrup, Vitamin C
• Drink lots of water and consume a variety of fruits and vegetables
