Throughout the game, player will learn how to protect themselves and one another. We call these ‘power ups!’
Some important power ups in the COVID-19 war are some of the guidance Albertans have been following since the pandemic began. These include wearing a mask, washing our hands, and staying home when we are sick.
Have you talked to your child about why these are important? Here are some points to discuss with your child to help them understand why this protection is important.
Why is it important to wear a mask?
- Face masks create a shield that helps prevents germs from coming into your nose and mouth, and maybe making you or others you love from getting sick.
Why do we need to wash our hands regularly?
- Keeping our hands clean is one of the most important things we can do to help us not get sick or spreading germs to your friends and family.
Why is staying home when you feel sick important?
- When you are sick, you can spread your illness to others.
- To help make sure your friends and family stay healthy, it is best to stay at home when you are not feeling well.
