Objetivo: Conhecer a experiência de crianças em seu adoecimento por COVID-19. Método: Estudo qualitativo descritivo e exploratório, guiado pelo conceito de Qualidade de Vida da Organização Mundial de Saúde. Participaram 24 crianças, com idades entre sete e nove anos, 11 meses e 29 dias, diagnosticadas com COVID-19. Os dados foram coletados mediante entrevista semiestruturada e submetidos à análise temática dedutiva. Resultados: As crianças compreendiam o que é a COVID-19, a sua alta letalidade e transmissibilidade e ainda suas formas de contágio e prevenção. A COVID-19 foi identificada como algo negativo. A experiência de adoecimento de crianças por COVID-19 foi permeada por mudanças em suas rotinas, sobretudo por ter as atividades limitadas ao domicílio, alterações emocionais e sintomas físicos devido à infecção pelo vírus. Conclusão: As crianças compreenderam a gravidade da pandemia e identificaram as mudanças ocorridas. Também manifestaram entendimento sobre a doença e o seu controle. Conhecer a experiência de adoecimento de crianças pode orientar ações de cuidado direcionadas a elas, reconhecendo que entendimento adequado da criança sobre o que ela vivencia pode contribuir para o enfrentamento do adoecimento e para sua participação nas ações de controle.

RESULTS: The children understood what COVID-19 is, its high lethality and transmissibility, and its forms of contagion and prevention. COVID-19 has been identified as something negative. The experience of children becoming ill with COVID-19 was permeated by changes in their routines, especially due to having activities limited to the home, emotional changes, and physical symptoms due to infection with the virus.
