Описание: Getting kids used to seeing and wearing face masks can be challenging, but the proper use of face coverings is an important step we can all take to help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus (Sars-CoV-2) that is causing the COVID-19 pandemic. Please note that the CDC has advised that children 2 years of age and younger should not wear a face mask.
