How to Hold a Socially Distanced Playdate for Your Kids

How to Hold a Socially Distanced Playdate for Your Kids Summer vacation is upon us, and that means children will want to play with their friends more.

Kids can spread coronavirus among themselves and then bring the virus home.

Here are some ways you can ensure they have fun and stay safe.

1.

Avoid having your kids and their friends share food.

Let them play after lunch or breakfast so they're not hungry.

2.

Keep playdates short, with 30 to 60 minutes being ideal.

3.

Have them play outdoors.

It is much easier for COVID-19 to spread if they play inside.

4.

Encourage kids to play "stay-away games." Have them ride bikes or play catch instead of "tag."
