How to encourage children to behave while wearing a mask

For children, the act of wearing a mask (and seeing others wear them) can be daunting. Joni Downey, the founder of Characters of Character, utilizes her Behavior Bear character to share some tips and advice.

This is an important message from Behavior Bear! I just want to let you know, I wear my mask wherever I go. Wearing a mask is important today, to wear it at home, at work, at school, and play. If you’re not sure you can always ask, if you’re not sure when to wear your mask. Be sure to wash your hands and stay your distance, too because these now are good behaviors made just for you!

Please pass me along to help others know, wearing a mask is a good way to go!

When you encourage your child the behaviors improve, teach them that a mask is to be worn in their classroom or at home or in the community, depending on where you live and what you’re teaching them to do during the Pandemic.

Color me in and then let me know that your behavior will surely grow! I’m a good listener and follow the rules, at home, at school, and in the community, too! Having good behavior is the right thing to do!
