Feelings can be tricky. We sometimes can't seem to find the right words to express our mood, especially if it's one that we have never felt before. The Moodsters are a team of 5 cute and cuddly monsters who use their problem-solving skills to solve the mysteries of our feelings. The creator of the Moodsters, Denise Daniels, RN, MS, has teamed up with Scholastic to create the First Aid for Feelings workbook to help students cope with the range of feelings and emotions experienced during the COVID outbreak. This 16-page book, complete with a letter from the author to parents, can be printed out and completed together and referenced back to in the future.

Another great resource for coping with the coronavirus is a coloring book created by clinicians at LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. The pages of the coloring book tell a story of Caroline, a girl living in New Orleans, who is having a difficult time understanding what the coronavirus is and why it is important to follow the protocols set forth by governing officials. This resource is great for students because it educates the children on important aspects of COVID while incorporating art, a widely used coping mechanism when dealing with stress and anxiety.
