With so many mamas spending more and more time at home, finding fun activities to entertain and educate kids has become the new normal. If you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed, the Sesame Street crew is offering a bit of relief and support during the COVID-19 health crisis.

The books cover many topics, including math, music, reading and animals, so you’re bound to find something to entertain your little one—and even yourself.

“Around the world, young children’s lives are being turned upside down, and parents and caregivers are looking for ways to give their children—and themselves—a sense of stability in this new normal,” Dr. Rosemarie Truglio, senior vice president for curriculum and content, sesame workshop, said in a statement. “But there are things parents and caregivers can do to face each day with optimism. Sesame Street is here to provide the caring adults in children’s lives with the resources they need to help children, and foster their healthy development at home.”

The new initiative also offers resources to help mamas manage anxiety, and establish routines to help families stay mentally active. And as noted on the site, the new resources aren’t prescriptions mamas must follow—just ideas to help families find ways to breathe, laugh and play together.

There isn’t a specified expiration date for the free ebooks and learning resources, but we’re super appreciative of any resource, for any amount of time, that helps families get through this global crisis together.
