COVID-19 has posed such an emergency situation that the whole educational system has switched to e-learning in order to keep the students engaged in their academics.
The unexpected closure of schools during the lockdown has led to digital education to ensure safety and to keep up the students with the curriculum. Hence, it is quite challenging for teachers, parents, and students to get used to the new age of schooling through e-learning.
As no one knows till when the schools and other educational institutions remain shut,
Though the sudden change in the routine is a bit uncomfortable, there are some best ways and proven techniques to make virtual schooling or e-learning happy and healthy.

Also, plan a time for physical activity like playing outside when they are done with online classes and school work. This aids kids' physical and mental health.

You can ask them to write their goal and stick it at a place where it can be easily noticed. Establish an action plan and time needed to complete each task and then stick with the plan and measure the progress Finally, make time to celebrate accomplishments, this will encourage kids to set up and achieve new goals.
Monitor your kid's online behaviour
Stay with your kids during their virtual classes. This can help your kids if there are any technical issues that can disturb and even make them panic while engaging in their school work. Also, staying in touch with your kids while they are using the computer is crucial as increased access to the internet may heighten the risk for a child's safety, protection, and privacy. Follow age-appropriate monitoring levels and use parental control apps for safe online sessions.
Help kids to deal with anxiety
As kids, they are unsure about the current situations and might be stressed out due to the new challenges they are facing about unexpected school closure or staying at home or engaging in their academics with e-learning. So, it is important for you as parents or caretakers to hear their concerns and help them to understand what is happening around them. Make sure to spend some time listening to them and provide age-appropriate information to make them comfortable and feel secure.
Stay connected virtually
Though it is important to maintain social distancing, staying in touch with friends also helps a lot for children with emotional wellbeing. Find out some ways to provide opportunities for kids to interact with friends and family members virtually in your presence. This helps to maintain connections and boost kids' moods. Staying in touch with children's faculty helps you to stay informed about academics and provides guidance about how to support your kids during homeschooling.

Also, check for the right lighting and good network connectivity in the learning space to ensure children a better experience while distance learning virtually.
