There’s been a run on supplies with COVID-19 quarantines so I created a COVID-19 quarantine shopping list. I’m slightly panicked about being trapped at home for 30 days and not having supplies for my toddler. With all of the fear-based media, I’m feeling the anxiousness that many of us are. When I’m uncomfortable, helping others (as cheesy as it sounds) is what brings me comfort.
There are many of us that will be home with our kiddos at least the next 2 weeks and that’s also a fearful feeling. Hear me out here – children thrive in routine. We also all thrive in routine and the quarantine throws a kink into that. If you’re currently hitting the panic button, let me help you with my shopping list. Everything is from Amazon making it easy to shop in one place.
However, I do want to call out that it’s important to support your local small businesses at this time. If nothing else, buy a gift card from them to generate revenue while sales are down. Cash flows could be tight causing businesses to close if this goes on too long.
