<p>The objectives of the present study were to identify the main stressors of children aged 3 to 5 years old in relation to COVID 19, their coping strategies, those of their parents and the relationship between them, as well as to know the relationship between the children's emotions and their coping strategies. For this purpose, a semi-structured interview was conducted with the parents of 34 children, and a qualitative analysis was carried out. It was found that the main concern of preschoolers before COVID 19 is related to the health of their family and themselves, the main coping strategy of preschoolers is avoidance; the main strategy used by parents is to play or do different activities with them. A relationship was observed between the preschoolers' functional coping and the parents' strategies of playing or doing different activities with them, as well as an association between the preschoolers' avoidant coping and the parents' strategies of distracting them and not giving importance to the COVID issue. &nbsp;With reference to emotions, it was found that basic positive emotions in the face of the disease were related to avoidant coping, but not to functional coping.</p>
