Explaining coronavirus to young children

This book is designed to help parents and carers talk to young children about their concerns and questions about the current pandemic using rhyming snippets:


“This is the most important thing you can do.

Wash your hands thoroughly through and through.”


Each page can enable the start of a discussion about the different aspects of coronavirus issues, such as the shops and school being closed and staying indoors.


As each country is dealing with the pandemic in differing ways, some information may not be completely relevant at this time.


The book contains no medical advice, theories or detailed scientific descriptions.
