During the covid-19 lockdown, Pingu’s English partners worldwide, including those in Vietnam and Laos, have been running virtual Pingu’s English classes while schools have been closed. Pingu’s English headquarters have also been supporting parents with free daily learning activities and storytime videos through Pingu’s English at Home to help keep their children engaged in their learning, and entertained.
