Play day!

No school!I wanna go to skoo today!

4

Who knows why we need to stay at home?

5

It’s because of corolla virus!

No! It’s called cobid 9 + 10!

...cowonabye-wis?

6

Coronavirus is a new germ that scientists are studying.

7

Up close, coronavirus looks like a tiny king! See all those little crowns?

Let’s pretend his name is King Covid.

look at all my crowns!are you jealous?

8

King Covid is a bad king who tries to make our bodies sick!

9

There are three places where King Covid can get inside and make us sick: your eyes, your nose, and your mouth.

10

Soap has the ability to destroy the virus when it’s on our skin.

retreat! Retreat!!It’s the super SOAP squad!

But we can fight back! Did you know that soap is a super weapon? King Covid and his army are afraid of soap!

11

If we wash our hands with soap for 20 seconds, we can protect ourselves

and others from the virus.

12

Also, try not to touch your face. This will make it much harder for King Covid

to get to your eyes, nose, and mouth.

I’m hands free, you can’t hurt me!

13

If we get sick by King Covid, we might feel tired with a cough, a sore throat, or a fever.

But don’t worry! Most of us will feel better soon.

14

Some people have a hard time getting better when King Covid makes them sick,

like our grandparents.

15

We can help them with our secret superpower:

(King Covid doesn’t know what this is)

16

What does caring look like?

17

Superpower Step #1: Wash our hands! As we’ve learned, washing our hands is one of the

most important things we can do to care for others because it washes away King Covid and his army!

18

Superpower Step #2: Cough or sneeze the right way! Covering our coughs and sneezing into a tissue or our elbow is another way to care for people

by protecting them from germs.

19

abort! abort!!It’s the elbow pit of doom!

But they can’t land on other people and make them sick if we cough

or sneeze the right way.

You see, King Covid and his army like to travel by air.

20

Superpower Step #3: Reach out to others!Think about the people that you miss.

Mail them a picture, write a letter, say a prayer for them, or talk to them over the phone.
