Government Information for Children
Below is a link to a curated list of Government resources for children. It was supposed to be shared at TLA this year, but since it was cancelled the curator posted it on the ALA connect site.
I thought it might be helpful. Stay safe and well!

Darvin's Chrome Extension Tip
Make sure that both of you are using Google Chrome Browser.
Go to remotedesktop.google.com
- click on the download arrow where it says [Get Support]
- click [Add to Chrome] should be a blue box
- click [Add Extension]
- click [Got it]
Now whenever you want to use it just click on the extension that will be next to the 3 dots on the top right of your screen. If you have more than one extension, just roll the mouse over them until you find the one that says Chrome Remote Desktop.
You will see a screen that has two big boxes. One will say [Get Support]. The other will say [Give Support]. Have the person you want to help click [Generate Code] and give it to you over the phone. Then you type it in where it says [Access Code]. Then click [Connect]. Within a few seconds you will see the other person's screen pop up on your screen and you will be in control of their mouse.
