We know there is a lot of uncertainty right now, as families scramble to make or change plans and prepare to deal with the coronavirus (COVID-19), and try to keep up with ever-evolving news and updates.

We know this can be especially challenging as more and more schools close down for extended periods, leaving parents and children trying to create a new normal at home.

Even while we’re complying with “social distancing” guidelines, there’s a wealth of online resources you can take advantage of to keep children occupied and engaged.

Through our work with educators and school systems – providing online virtual trainings, and tools designed for use in and outside classroom – we’ve become familiar with some great resources that we’d like to share with you. Some come from well-known names (at least one that should be very familiar); others are hidden gems. Some are free; others are offering discounted rates to support learning during the pandemic.

One of our core beliefs is that education does not have to stop with the classroom – especially now, when many classrooms are off-limits. Take a look at the suggestions below, and let the learning begin.

We hope this guide has been helpful and opened up new possibilities for at home learning. We are here to offer additional support and resources to schools, organizations, and families in need.
