Ways To Support Grieving Children

“Remember the memories that you have and tell about them. Don’t keep them inside. Tell them out loud.” Kelly, sibling

Encourage your child to talk about their emotions. Suggest other ways to express feelings, such as writing in a journal, drawing a picture, or playing music. Allow them to see you grieve. Expressing your emotions without overwhelming your child can encourage your son or daughter to share his or her own emotions. Find others who can offer support. And cherish memories. Share them. Save them.
