Hey, LifeKit listeners. Megan Kane here, our managing producer, and I've got a favor to ask you.

We know that the coronavirus pandemic has upended so much of daily life, and it hasn't exactly been easy.

But everyone here on the Life Kit team has been sharing with each other all these great creative tips we keep seeing out in the world and how we've been coping throughout this crisis.

And here's a particularly glamorous tip that we got from NPR's Lauren McGaqi. So the other day I was getting dressed when

something shiny caught my eye from the back of my closet. It was a sparkly sequin romper that I

bought on a whim, but shockingly had never found an occasion to wear it for. So I threw it on and felt fabulous for the morning conference call.

You don't have to do it every day, but I don't know, consider doing something like formal Fridays.

You know, it's that perfect occasion for the sparkly romper, or maybe you have some vintage MC Hammerpants.

And that made us think we want to hear from all of you about your coronavirus coping tips.

Just leave us a voicemail at 202-216-9823 or email us at LifeKit atMPR.org.

Just say your name, where you're from, and your tip for coping with all the changes the coronavirus has brought on. We'll be sharing

these in upcoming episodes because remember, we're trying to get through this crazy time together.

So let's share the love.

Hi, I'm Anya Kamenetz. And I'm Corey Turner. And this is another life kit dispatch from the new land of coronavirus.

And today's episode is what you parents need to know about homeschooling.

Because tens of millions of us out there are now doing the best we possibly can to keep our kids engaged, get our work done, and maybe even do some learning.

Yeah. And as always, as education reporters, we've been looking into this. Anya has a lot of

really great information to help you all who are homeschooling, and we want to get to that in

just a minute. But I'm going to start us off with our first takeaway. Takeaway number one is a little background for you parents who may be kind of curious.
