Title A name given to the resource Children and Young People's Contributions During the COVID-19 Pandemic Subject The topic of the resource The project is by the Child and Community Wellbeing Unit (Centre for Health Equity) at Melbourne School of Population and Global Health (University of Melbourne). Description An account of the resource The Kids in Action on COVID-19 is an international collaboration that aims to provide a platform for children and young people’s ideas to promote the best outcomes during and after the COVID-19 restrictions. In this project, adult and young researchers will collaborate locally and internationally to find out how children and young people have contributed during the COVID-19 pandemic and create a digital exhibition. Local projects will also engage with their communities to disseminate their findings. We want to work with young people on doing this because we believe that their ideas and experiences are crucial to understanding how to support them during these times of crisis. In this way, we seek to promote opportunities for child and youth citizenship. Additionally, we aim to scale up the impact of young people’s local contributions by connecting them through an international network.

Title A name given to the resource Mail a Hug Subject The topic of the resource Mail a Hug Description An account of the resource An easy way to brighten the day of a friend or loved one that they don't see often. Have your kids mail a hug to friends and family that they don’t see often! It’s a fun, easy way to brighten someone’s day. Hi friends! Last Fall, we did this mail a hug activity as part of our 75 Acts of Kindness for Kids challenge and it was a huge hit! We mailed one to my parents and one to my sister, since they both live several states away. It’s such a simple activity but it really can brighten someone’s day. Here are your directions: Spread out a long sheet of butcher paper. Trace the child’s head, arms, and upper torso onto the paper. You can either cut it out now or decorate first and then cut. We used paint but markers or crayons would work just fine! Print or write out the message below to accompany the hug. Fold it all up, put in an envelope and mail! Here’s the message we use: “I miss you when you’re far away. I’d love to see you every day. But since I can’t come over to play, I’m mailing you a hug today. So although it might be quite a sight, wrap my arms around you tight. Repeat daily to keep your smile bright, until we get to reunite!” We mailed a few more hugs this weekend to friends and family both near and far since we’re all stuck at home right now! I’d love to see pictures of your hugs if you mail some!
