Baby And Toddler Educational Toys

When and how to send children back to school has been one of the biggest debates of the lockdown. From Monday, 1 June, some primary pupils will start returning to their classrooms to face new social distancing measures and education like never before. Teachers say they are having to go against some of their instincts to conform. Faced with classes a third of their usual size, books and toys are having to be stored away with two-metre tape and barriers a common sight. We're a little nervous, a little unsure. School will look very different. Many parents are keen for their children to come back, but others are wary and will wait to see what we do as a school first before deciding if their children will come back. – Marie Thomas, Headteacher, St Mary Redcliffe C of E Primary School Most schools will welcome back nursery, Reception, Years 1 & 6, but the headteacher has the final say.

To boost the morale of children of migrants who have been facing prolonged hardships due to the COVID-19 lockdown, police in Jhansi distributed toys to cheer them up at the Madhya Pradesh border. Jhansi Police have been setting up camps across the border to provide shelter and relief to migrant workers, hundreds of whom are still trying to reach their home states on foot. On Sunday, the cops decided to surprise the children of the migrant workers at the MP-Uttar Pradesh border with a gift of toys as they departed for their home states. The police wanted to win over the confidence of the children, who had perhaps faced the worst of the hardships, to carry back home some happy memories of the border as well as Jhansi Police's hospitality. The gesture won many hearts on social media including that of Union Minister for Health Dr Harsh Vardhan who shared a video of the incident on Twitter.

Removing soft toys and sealing off books in primary school classrooms is "tragic" and "misplaced" a leading scientist has said. As schools prepare to reopen their doors to pupils in reception, year one and year six, some teachers have warned that young children will have to stand in small hoops in the playground and even do their own first aid.  But Prof Robert Dingwall, a member of the Government's New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group (Nervtag) said schools should focus on regular hand washing and ensure thorough cleaning at the end of the day, warning that "gold plating" sensible measures would deter families from returning to normal life.  "Children are being told they won't be able to take artwork home with them or touch the books but the notion that the virus could be transmitted on a sheet of paper is extreme," he told the Telegraph. "There are very small theoretical possibilities but they should ...

Robin Harris runs a Northeast Portland group home that includes several foster children with intellectual developmental disabilities. Prior to coronavirus, one of their favorite activities was the short walk to the corner convenience store. Being able to get a drink and a snack and say hello to the store owner made their day. Coronavirus has shuttered the store and an important opportunity to interact. It meant something last weekend when Joseph "Jay" Kapp arranged to have a large shipment of games, puzzles and educational toys delivered to the home. "It was like Christmas all over for them again," Harris said. Kapp, a court-appointed special advocate (CASA), has watched the impact coronavirus outbreak has had on the special-needs children throughout Portland.
