As a way to let Thompson families document their times during the COVID-19 pandemic, Kiddies Northern Preschool is offering COVID time capsule kits thanks to the Manitoba Stay at Home grant.

Lynn Martin, director at the preschool, says she initially wanted to send the kits off to families before the winter break to give them an activity to work on during code red, but ended up pushing it back to the New Year in order to have more time to receive the supplies they needed.

Martin hopes to have a celebration for families who participated in January 2030 to lay out the time capsules and have everyone look through them.
