Children's Experiences during COVID-19 Restrictions and Lockdowns: Engagement

Ms LilyRose Wogan-Martin:

I am a very artsy person. I love to draw a lot and for me it was helpful to draw because I find it fun to just place down a blue marker or a red marker and get ready to draw whatever I feel like. I would go on FaceTime with my friends every week or twice a week. I did not want to do too much FaceTime or get too attached because I knew I had to do schoolwork. You had to have an even balance to be okay during lockdown because it was such an unusual experience.
