Their answers are honest, thoughtful, and at times moving: from missing friends and feeling lonely, to finding new creativity and spending more time with family. As children begin to return to a changed world, hearing directly from them is a reminder of how much they are processing — and how much they benefit when the adults around them make space to listen." taxonomy: category: - 'Mental Health' tag: - Anxiety type: - Video contributor: - 'Sebastian Sharples' --- # Children's Voices - Coronavirus / Covid-19 Mental Health talk [ Anxiety ](https://nipinthebud.trilbyhost.com/results/tag:Anxiety) [ ![Nip in the Bud](https://nipinthebud.trilbyhost.com/user/themes/nitb/images/logos/round-logo.png) ](https://nipinthebud.trilbyhost.com/about-us "About Nip in the Bud") Duration: 0h 6m 13s Published: May 2020 Produced and Directed by: [Sebastian Sharples](https://nipinthebud.trilbyhost.com/about-us/authors-and-experts/sebastian-sharples) In this film, a group of children share their experiences of lockdown in their own words — what they've found hard, what they've surprisingly enjoyed, and how they feel about returning to school.
