Vice President Mike Pence’s daughter has launched a kid-friendly coronavirus information show on her YouTube channel.

Charlotte Pence-Bond posted the first episode of the Littles News Briefing yesterday which she says tries to inform and reassure children about the Covid-19 pandemic.

“I was thinking recently about what I can do to help kids feel a little more secure, a little more informed,” Ms Pence-Bond said on Fox&Friends.

“So I wanted to create a show that kids could have their own little news briefing and feel like they have information that they need.”

In the first episode of the fifteen minute briefing she interviewed her father Mike Pence, who is head of the White House’s coronavirus task force, about social distancing and asked him questions sent in from children themselves.

“I asked him questions about what the guidelines are, but I also asked him questions that kids actually sent to me,” she explained during the interview.

She recalled to Fox&Friends how she was left in the dark as a child when the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks happened because people thought the news coverage would “scare her.”

She anticipated that children could be feeling the same way about the pandemic and started the show to break down the information for younger audiences.
