It’s been only a week for us in Vegas, but this mom & dad of 5 kids living in Milan have been under government-enforced lockdown, with penalty of fines, for more than 3 weeks. The active family is looking at possibly two more weeks at the least of living and homeschooling under quarantine. She shared how they stay positive, what they wish they had stocked up on and the importance of staying positive through this difficult time.
Reaching Out and Staying Positive
The twins were curious about what kids in Italy were doing a few weeks in of a lengthy quarantine. We reached out to Erika Di Martino and her five children in Milan, Italy, about a week before we ourselves were asked to shelter in place.
We finally connected and talked about what it’s like to not be able to leave your home or yard, the importance of quelling fears and talk about facts with kids and the most difficult changes in these active and crafty kids’ daily lives since being placed under quarantine more than three weeks ago.
We hope you enjoy our uncut video! It was our first Zoom interview. We learned so much from this family’s experience.
Erika Di Martino is a life coach and mom of 5 living in Milan, Italy. Follow the Di Martino family on Instagram @fantastici_cinque.
