Staying at home for a long time is a risks to the occurance of stress due to limited physical activity, children are more often watching TV or playing gadgets. To reduce stress and boredom and to improve children's body movements, it is necessary to do walk and stop playing activity and expressive writing which can decrease stress and increase not only concentration but also reflexes of a child's body. This activity was attended by 16 children aged 6-12 years old at Al Rasyid Alquran Learning Center, Bangkalan. The activities was held  for two days. In day one, the children wrote expressively in a book about knowing children feeling. In day two, they played walk and stop. Their stress level measured by using perceived stress scale for children.

Leading with Pedagogical Tact- a Challenge in Children's Sports in Sweden The purpose of this article is to elucidate and problemize meetings between children and leaders in children's sport. The competitive sport is high valuated in the Swedish society and sport for children is central in the Swedish youth politics. The foundation in Swedish sport, as well as in the other Nordic countries, has for a long time relied on voluntary commitment. Approximately 650 000 people are voluntary engaged as leaders in sport in Sweden and 70% of children between 7 and 14 years compete in sports clubs. There is, however, a tension in the Swedish sport system. The sports for children has double missions - ‘association nurturing’ and ‘competition nurturing’, missions which are not always in harmony. In the daily activity it is the voluntary leaders who have to deal with these missions, which creates a field of tension. In this article I argue for a bridge between these missions by a leadership based on pedagogical tact. The empirical outlook is a narrative based on statements from leaders, children and parents in a study dealing with voluntary leadership within children's football. In the end I argue that focusing on this bridge is a win-win situation, both for children and sports.

Abstract Introduction The COVID19 pandemic has led to anxiety and fears for the general public. People were concerned about coming to a medical facility where the virus might be transmitted. Furthermore, stay-at-home orders that were implemented during the pandemic did not apply to clinic visits but contributed to people staying at home even for medical care. We hypothesized that there were delays in burn care due to the pandemic. Methods We queried our clinic data for number of clinic visits and new burn evaluations by month. Patients referred to our clinic from March 15, 2020 to Sept 15, 2020 were reviewed for time of presentation after injury. Days from injury date to clinic referral date and days from clinic referral date to appointment date were calculated. Patients who were referred but did not show and were not seen in our ED were not included because injury date could not be determined. Univariate analysis was performed. Results As seen in Figure 1, our in-person clinic volume decreased in April and May 2020 but rebounded in June 2020 as compared to the number of clinic visits for the same months last year. Similarly, in Figure 2, our new burn evaluations decreased in April and May 2020 compared to our new burn volume from 2019. However, our video telehealth visits increased in March and April then decreased in June-August. Conclusions Our burn clinic remained open to see patients with burn injury throughout the pandemic, however, clinic visits were delayed early in the pandemic. While we had an increase in video telehealth, it does not account for the decrease in clinic visits. This may be due to low enrollment in the electronic medical record encrypted communication platform and/or limited knowledge/access to the technology. Additional care may have been informally given via telephone but not well captured. Furthermore, burn care was delivered in the following months. Additional investigation is necessary to see if the incidence of burn injury decreased.

Consumer virtual reality (VR) headsets (e.g. Oculus Go) have brought VR non-fiction (VRNF) within reach of at-home audiences. However, despite increase in VR hardware sales and enthusiasm for the platform among niche audiences at festivals, mainstream audience interest in VRNF is not yet proven. This is despite a growing body of critically acclaimed VRNF, some of which is freely available. In seeking to understand a lack of engagement with VRNF by mainstream audiences, we need to be aware of challenges relating to the discovery of content and bear in mind the cost, inaccessibility and known limitations of consumer VR technology. However, we also need to set these issues within the context of the wider relationships between technology, society and the media, which have influenced the uptake of new media technologies in the past. To address this work, this article provides accounts by members of the public of their responses to VRNF as experienced within their households. We present an empirical study – one of the first of its kind – exploring these questions through qualitative research facilitating diverse households to experience VRNF at home, over several months. We find considerable enthusiasm for VR as a platform for non-fiction, but we also find this enthusiasm tempered by ethical concerns relating to both the platform and the content, and a pervasive tension between the platform and the home setting. Reflecting on our findings, we suggest that VRNF currently fails to meet any ‘supervening social necessity’ (Winston, 1996, Technologies of Seeing: Photography, Cinematography and Television. British: BFI.) that would pave the way for widespread domestic uptake, and we reflect on future directions for VR in the home.

Typhoid is a life-threatening disease that has remained endemic in parts of Africa and Asia where its burden is elevated by the inefficiency of control efforts which have been hampered by lack of epidemiological data, among others. In Nigeria, such data is absent in most of the States like Gombe where the disease has been rife for a long time, hence, to bridge that knowledge gap, this study was set up to determine the host-associated risk factors for typhoid occurrence and recurrence in Gombe. A questionnaire that was designed and validated for this location was used to obtain data from 663 respondents using simple random sampling and analyzed using the Chi-square test for association and binomial logistic regression to obtain risk factors for typhoid occurrence and recurrence, respectively. The study revealed that occurrences were statistically significantly associated with the variables for vaccination (χ2 = 39.729, p < 0.01), having houseboy/girl (χ2 = 16.909, p < 0.01), typhoid patient at home (χ2 = 13.393, p < 0.01), hand washing before handling food (χ2 = 22.856, p < 0.01), consuming iced/frozen items (χ2 = 16.805, p < 0.01), boiling drinking water (χ2 = 49.633, p < 0.01), and eating commercially available foods/drinks (χ2 = 27.864, p < 0.01), while recurrences were statistically significantly predicted by „not sure of been vaccinated‟ (OR = 2.962, CI = 1.290 to 6.802, p < 0.01), „not having another typhoid patient at home‟ (OR = 1.799, CI = 0.998 to 3.244, p < 0.01), and „drinking unboiled water sometimes‟ (OR = 2.130, CI = 1.023 to 4.434, p < 0.01). It is believed that these findings will guide efforts by the Government for health interventions against typhoid in the study area, thus improving the quality of life for the population.
