And not whining about wearing them.

Edited to add: Giving it serious thought, I haven't see ANY children whining about having to wear their masks.
There are 8 kids in my wife's Autism unit and none of them wear masks in the classroom, they become the entire focus of the kids emotions and attention making normal classroom activities impossible. She says it's nearly impossible to keep several of them in their clothes due to sensory issues, masks are even worse.
