Now that New York City has begun giving out COVID-19 vaccinations to children ages 5 to 11, many kids are facing down the idea of getting their two shots with a mixture of fear and excitement. 

WNYC reporter Jessica Gould spoke to a few. Six-year-old Charlie Schiffrin says she's really excited to do normal things again once she gets her shot. "I wanna go in this grocery store and get my favorite foods."

Her twin sister, Talie, also has big plans once she is fully inoculated. Her dream? "Go inside a restaurant and eat by myself with my sister."

And 5-year-old Paz Schaffer says while she's really scared of needles, she's very excited to be able to travel again. "I might go to England where all the castles are, and I might see the castles."

City officials expect to get 330,000 doses of Pfizer's vaccine for children over the next few days. The city's public schools will begin hosting vaccination sites next week, and the city is also giving out $100 pre-paid debit cards as incentives. 

Just like adults, kids are fully vaccinated after they've taken two doses of the Pfizer vaccine.
