Ryan COVID video

Your kids have questions — and Ryan’s got the answers!

Ryan Kaji, from the popular YouTube channel Ryan’s World, released an informative video about COVID-19 for kids, in which Ryan and his parents interview Andy Slavitt, acting administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) under President Obama, who’s been encouraging people to #StayHome. 

In the video, Slavitt, Ryan, and his parents talk about the virus, if our pets can get infected, how to stop the spread, what’s next, and more.

In addition to helping kids stay informed on COVID-19, the family of Ryan’s World made a donation of $500,000 to the First Responders Children’s Foundation to help with the organization’s COVID-19 relief efforts, which provides support to the families of paramedics, police officers, firefighters, and medical professionals. 

This new video with Slavitt is part of a special YouTube playlist that Ryan’s World just released called, #StayHome, Stay Happy with Ryan’s Playlist. It includes DIY science experiments, food creations, dance challenges, and learning videos.
