[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kang Sharon] On the 17th, the Gyeongnam Smart Rest Center visited the Gyeongnam Support Group for Regional Children's Centers (hereinafter Gyeongnam Support Group) and delivered the 'Alternative Activity Package Set.'

The Alternative Activity Package Set was created to prevent excessive dependence on the internet and smartphones due to increased indoor activities of children caused by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and to support a healthy indoor play culture.

The Gyeongnam Support Group plans to distribute the donated Alternative Activity Package Sets to children using local centers.

Director Kim Bona said, "Due to the prevention of the spread of COVID-19 infection, external visit programs at regional children's centers have decreased, so there was a need for indoor play activities. We are grateful to the Gyeongnam Smart Rest Center for timely supporting the 'Alternative Activity Package Set.'"

Meanwhile, there are a total of 266 regional children's centers in Gyeongnam Province, serving 6,697 children. Due to the continued closure of regional children's centers caused by COVID-19, emergency care is being provided, and lunch boxes and snacks are being delivered for children cared for at home to minimize care gaps such as meal deficits.
