Hanger- verified. Where the expression of dark thoughts come to surface…. “Married couples were more likely to insert a larger number of pins into a “voodoo” doll representing their spouse”

An adorable story of Edna May who lived through the Spanish Flu… 106 years old and still alive today to share a message to children (and all of us!) that this pandemic will end

Everyone is tired of lockdowns – children in particular. We also know that some children are losing a sense of hope that it is never going to end. We have had the privilege to share the true story of Edna-May who got sick during the Spanish Flu and is alive today to tell her story.

We developed this free booklet to be able to use with children to show them that COVID will end and that life will return to some sort of normality. It is beautiful fable for our time.

Feel free to share it as widely as possible. We would love it to be read by as many children as we can. It is as relevant to children who are in lock down now, as it is to those who live with the uncertainty of COVID all the time.

Here’s what to look out for when it comes to noticing pandemic fatigue, and some of the things you can do about it. Visit bit.ly/3ysOUYL for further information about the feelings and behaviours that indicate pandemic fatigue and the practical steps you can take to manage them.
