When a child experiences loss, they may have questions, worries, and emotions that can be difficult to understand or express. This collection of stories and resources has been created to help children navigate bereavement, change, and difficult goodbyes with honesty, compassion, and hope. Through gentle storytelling and practical activities, children can explore their feelings, share memories, and find reassurance that they are not alone on their grief journey.
