Dealing with loneliness, as an adult or as a kid, can be a daunting task. For children, the last two years of interrupted routines, lack of in-person socialization and overall stress can compound feelings of loneliness (just as it can for adults).

Kids are able to turn to imaginary friends, toys and our suggested stories in the Moshi app to help them understand and process these feelings of loneliness. For adults, though, we’re so busy that we often shove down our feelings. The five tips below are just a starting point for recognizing those feelings of loneliness and acknowledging them.
