Kid Scoop’s mask-coloring pages help explain the COVID-19 virus to children
Emily Charrier, publisher of the Sonoma Index-Tribune weekly newspaper, has been publishing the Kid Scoop weekly feature since 1991. Recently she devoted two facing pages in the newspaper with blank masks for children to color.
“As a hometown newspaper, we have tried to cover every angle of COVID, to help our community stay informed and safe. Kid Scoop helps us reach our youngest readers, with fun activities packaged around important information. We plan to publish the decorated paper masks and keep reminding kids the importance of wearing a mask,” she said.
