With schools canceling all across the country, many of us parents have found ourselves as instant educators. This new reality can be terrifying, anxiety-inducing, and confusing all at once.
We’ve all been watching as a crazy amount of resources float around the internet. These, in and of themselves are panic attack inducing. So, we thought we’d give you a well researched, organized, and paired down list of the top resources we’ve come across so far.
Have a look and pick and choose what looks good to you. Remember, none of this is worth stressing yourself out over and if simply cuddling on your couch with your kids is what feels right, do that alllll day! We are here for you!
