给孩子们:
“不能出门玩耍很难过吧
It's sad not to be able to go out and play
但既然现在不用去学校了
But since you don't have to go to school now
就在家尽情做好玩的事吧
do your best to play at home
不要只是玩游戏哦
Don't just play games
用这些时间
Use that time
去读很多书
to read a lot of books
听很多音乐
and listen to a lot of music
画画 写诗 弹奏乐器
Painting, writing poetry, playing musical instruments
看电影也是不错的选择
and watching movies are also good choices
还有别忘了在家里做一点体操运动
And don't forget to do some exercises at home
努力渡过难关吧!”
Let's get over it
