Absolutely nothing structured but they do go out and hang out with their friends in the park on a regular basis.
They are into cosplay so they do that too.

I feel it will be a struggle to return to normal. She doesn’t want to go back to in-person school at all.


Why doesn’t she? I always get worried about the kids who don’t want to go back ☹️ Sometimes they need a little push, I think


Not PP but my introverted son would love to stay remote. It's an introvert's dream to stay home! He gets all the social interaction he wants (which isn't a lot) playing with his two siblings, and gets more sleep in a remote environment too (no commute). However, I think it's vital for his social development to be in school.
