The 'guidance' suggests we can have a child over from 4 July to play inside.

We've not had anyone here at all throughout the whole of lockdown. We've met people out for walks or in parks.

But my DC are very keen to have children over for playdates - which I do totally understand.

So, now we have to start thinking about whether we need any 'rules' or whatever...DH doesn't want to make all the kids self conscious. They all seem pretty good at social distancing when out etc but he wants them to enjoy play.

I feel nervous about it.

Anyway, any suggestions/thoughts on what others are doing is very welcome. Thanks

I would probably have one if the 15 children in my son's class over as they are together in a bubble 5 days a week until 20th Juky anyway.

Thanks for all the responses. I'm still really undecided.

I would like to keep the DC in the garden where possible. But they know from others that people can be in each other's houses, so they already feel slighted that we might not allow it.

I am very keen to stay responsible to the wider health of others, and yet not lack balance where the DCs needs are.

It's very hard to know.
