Stress, Anxiety, and Uncertainty in COVID times

In this episode, let's talk about stress, AUGH... More specifically, anxiety, uncertainty, and structure for children given stressful situations such as, gee I don't know, how about a global pandemic...Did I say AUGH?

A tad more serious this time around- promise I'll come up with some light-hearted stories more related to being kindergarten ready next time- but it seemed only appropriate that we broach this subject now.
