Canceled playdates. Constant mask-wearing. Months without hugging grandma and grandpa. Um, no more in-person school?!? Yeah, this year has been a doozy for kids, to say the least. But now with COVID-19 vaccines starting to roll out worldwide, the end (though still far off) is finally in sight. So, we asked kids what they’re going to do when all this is over, and their responses are exactly what you’d expect—hilarious, heartwarming and just the two-minute read you need right now.
1. “I want to go to Paddington, D.C. and then fly to Florida so I can chew gum on the flight.” — Henry, age 5 in Pelham, NY [Mom’s note: He means Washington, D.C.]
2. “Pretty much the first thing I want to do when I get out of quarantine is go to this big place with all different things you can touch and I think it’s called a museum, yeah, a museum.” — Porter, age 6 in Los Angeles, CA
