#OFMKidsCorner - My Hero is You: A story about the Coronavirus

Loading player...
In this special podcast, we are joined by heroic children from Mexico, Canada, South Africa, Kenya, Germany, Singapore and Australia to bring you an important story about the Coronovirus, called My Hero is You, written by Helen Patuck and developed by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee on Mental Health and Psychosocial Support in Emergency Settings. They asked 1700 children, parents, teachers and caregivers from around the world to share with us how they are coping with the Covid19 Pandemic – and they used this information to develop this story. They advise you to listen to this story alongside a parent, teacher or caregiver, so you can discuss and understand it.​
