How to persuade children to take face mask?

In the winter, the smog has become a must for many people to travel. No matter if it is an online store or a physical store, sales of various anti-pm2.5 masks have soared. The brands and styles of these masks are also emerging. Are these masks really effective as a publicity guard? Check the reporter's investigation. How to let children take face mask to prevent the epidemic?

Novel coronavirus, now known as "2019-nCoV", has gradually opened up its mysterious veil from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Zhong Nanshan to Wuhan. It can be passed from person to person. It is suggested that people wear face mask and wash hands frequently to avoid infection. For a while, masks are out of stock.


Then Wang Guangfa, director of respiratory and critical illness Medicine Department of Peking University Affiliated Hospital, came to the conclusion that it can be transmitted through conjunctiva, and then saw that there were many people wearing glasses and masks on the street.


When it comes to wearing face mask, it's a good thing for adults to say that patience is over. After all, life is more important, but children are in the stage of ignorance. It's still difficult for children to agree to wear masks. Children will feel uncomfortable with something on their face. Is there any way for children to wear masks?


1、 Tell children why they wear face mask
Children don't understand a lot of things when they are young, which requires our parents to guide them well, don't say anything, put on the card for children before going out, it's strange that you say children don't tear it off. That's good. For example, I'll cover the bowl with a lid and let you eat the contents. Do you want to do it? There must be doubts, fears or conflicts, so we need to tell our children why they need to wear masks. Generally, children over 3 years old understand what they have to say well. Now, the Internet resources are developed. We need to find some videos online for children to see, cooperate with the explanation, and most of them will agree.


I have recently encountered such an example. A novel coronavirus was found in Wuhan, where many doctors and soldiers were sent to support Wuhan. The doctors worked hard to save the patients, but because we had not developed any medicine that could eliminate the virus, some patients died. After hearing this, the child said, "Mom, I don't want to die." I told her that if we do a good job of protection, we will not be infected with the virus. If we do a good job of protection, we will not be infected with the virus, so we will not die.


For children under the age of 3, we can educate the older ones first, and the younger ones will do the same when they see how the older ones do, and then we can educate them to persist. If there is only one baby less than 3 years old, you can also let the child wear it after learning by video. At this time, don't bother to watch electronic products for a few minutes, which can't damage the eyes.
