How to Hold a Socially Distanced Playdate for Your Kids Summer vacation is upon us, and <br />that means children will want <br />to play with their friends more. Kids can spread coronavirus <br />among themselves and then <br />bring the virus home. Here are some ways you can ensure <br />they have fun and stay safe. 1. Avoid having your kids and <br />their friends share food. Let them play after lunch or <br />breakfast so they're not hungry. 2. Keep playdates short, with <br />30 to 60 minutes being ideal. 3. Have them play outdoors. It is much easier for COVID-19 <br />to spread if they play inside. 4. Encourage kids <br />to play "stay-away games." Have them ride bikes or <br />play catch instead of "tag."
