S2, Ep 15: Children's Mental Health

This week's episode is all about how kids are coping with the lockdown. 

We hear from children themselves - their thoughts about coronavirus, how they feel about homeschooling, things they miss about going out, and the good things that have come from being at home.

I speak to children's mental health expert, Shahana Knight, about the impact that social isolation is having on kids and what parents and carers can do to support them. Shahana shares lots of useful tips on helping children to express themselves, teaching them to be resilient, how to support children who don't have any siblings, and ways that you can help your children (and yourselves!) unwind and de-stress.
