How Are You? Children in the Corona Crisis - Mona from South Africa

All over the world, people are fighting the Coronavirus. Children are particularly affected by the pandemic that has changed everything. Their entire daily lives have changed, securities are gone, everything is uncertain and adults are at a loss. Suddenly, everything that was taken for granted until a few weeks ago is forbidden: going to school, visiting grandparents, meeting with friends. Instead, everyone is told to stay at home. Life is no longer the same, for anyone. In all countries, children now have to learn to cope with this. In doing so, they often show a lot of courage and imagination. In the series "How Are You?" from Planet Schule, children and young people from several countries talk about their new everyday lives. In short clips filmed with their smartphones, they show their homes, report on how they now learn, play and live, and talk about their fears and wishes. They are all united by one dream: The crisis should be over soon! Mona is 11 years old and lives near Pretoria, South Africa. This episode tells her story.
