The present study addresses the effects of school closures during the second COVID-19 lockdown in January and February 2021 on children's feelings of stress. Numerous quantitative studies have already proven the adverse effects of school closures during the first lockdown on the stress perception of children and adolescents. In contrast, the present study uses a qualitative research format to take a closer look at the personal perspectives of children during the second lockdown. Twelve telephone interviews were conducted between February 4, 2021, and February 22, 2021, to collect data on the organization of distance learning, leisure behavior, stress symptomatology, current concerns, perceptions of school under distance learning, and perceptions of school before the school closures. Data analysis demonstrated a strong influence of loneliness, classroom management, and leisure behavior on children's perceptions of stress. Furthermore, correlations were found between school closures, stress vulnerability, and stress perception.
