I've had a look through to see if there are any similar threads but I can't spot any. How are your children reacting to the situation? Are they excited at the thought of schools closing for a few weeks? Fearing the end of the world? Moaning at the idea of being cooped up at home? Just generally excited?

I do a lot of babysitting, and I remember one little boy who was only 8 but really anxious about Brexit and just needed to talk and talk about it, and further back another child who was deeply upset and couldn't sleep over that 'scary clowns' thing. How are your kids reacting to the current state of affairs? How will they cope if Britain goes into lockdown do you think?
