Abstract

The covid-19 pandemic and the measures taken by the authorities to curb its spread (confinement, closure of establishments, mobility restrictions or mandatory use of masks) affected not only the health and economy of the Spanish population, but also its vision and understanding of the world. The impact was felt particularly by children, who were at a crucial stage of their social and emotional development. We present an interpretative phenomenological analysis that addresses children’s experiences of the pandemic using the storytelling technique. Thirteen narratives were constructed by groups of girls and boys aged 7–14 years, collected as part of the fieldwork of the R&D&I project INFAPOST1, with a total of 56 participants (33 girls and 23 boys). The results, structured around two core dimensions – child agency and emotional valence – show how stories that are narrated with a higher level of child agency correspond to a positive emotional experience, and vice versa. In addition, stories whose main characters are boys include more playful, positive and active contents than those with girl protagonists, in which concern and care for others predominate
