It was found that 90.1% of children stated that Covid-19 changed their hygiene habits, 80.2% of them stated that the most effective measure to protect against Covid-19 was wearing a mask, 99.4% paid more attention to hand hygiene. It has been determined that compliance with hygiene and protection measures is higher in girls and those who have had Covid-19 infection in their family.
Conclusion: It has been determined that the majority of children have information about Covid 19 and protection measures and pay attention to wearing masks and hand hygiene. Children, who are an important group in terms of carrying and transmitting the infection, should ensure the continuity of their adaptation to protection measures by eliminating their missing information on the subject.
