Writing prompts for children.


Writing prompts for children:
Kids are human and are understandably worried and anxious about the coronavirus situation.
They may not feel like they can focus on school-work while there are big changes happening around them.
I have put together some writing prompts to help them focus on the beauty of the world around them, the things that are special to them and to get down on paper what they are feeling and what is inside of them. 
Parents: There are no right or wrong answers, overlook spellings and punctuation. This is about your child getting down on paper what is inside them.
 Give them a small notebook, it would be lovely to look back at the questions and answers in the future.
