Ukraine's Kids: Living in a War Zone

Ukraine's kids are growing up too fast. They're not playing games or going to school like other children. Instead, they're learning about danger and war. The fields around their homes are not safe. They are filled with mines and bombs. The Russians put them there. The kids can't play outside like they used to. They have to be careful all the time. The schools are closed. The kids can't go to class. They have to stay home and learn online. But even at home, they are not safe. The air alert sirens go off all the time. They have to hide when they hear the bombs. It's a scary life for these kids. There are people trying to help. They bring food, clothes, and toys. They also bring messages of hope. But it's not enough. The kids need more than that. They need a safe place to live. They need to go to school. They need to play outside without fear. The kids in Ukraine are strong. They are learning to survive. But they should not have to. They should be playing games and learning in school. They should be kids. Not soldiers. Not survivors. Just kids. The war is taking a toll on these kids. They are growing up too fast. They are seeing things no child should see. They are living in a war zone. And it's not fair.
