Lockdown may have caused some parents to worry about their children's social exclusion but for others it brought "positives", a psychologist has said.
Dr Abigail Wright said the restrictions could lead to a "heightened awareness" of the pandemic's impact on youngsters.
Some parents said their children had "missed out" on key experiences but others said theirs had thrived.
South Wales educational psychologist Dr Wright, who specialises in early years, said parents should exercise "caution" in interpreting how their child has coped.
"A lot of people will have found it to be an understandably challenging time, but other people will have found positives within that, and had very different experiences," Dr Wright said.
