Siblings & Children

It is vital to remember that children must not be left out of the healing process. As a result, we have compiled a series of resources that helps children and families learn how to cope with the loss of a loved one. Many of the books and articles listed here were designed by their respective authors to help children process their unique grief. These items will hopefully allow children to express their feelings and share their remembrance of a loved one.

Facing loss and grief is never easy and can be even more difficult for a child. Specific ideas and activities can help children express their grief in a supportive and constructive manner.

Parents may also find help in explaining the idea of loss in ways that are understandable to children.
