💡 For Grown-Ups

Give your child space to complete this at their own pace — grief is not linear.
Sit nearby, but don't hover. Let them lead how much they want to share.
If they write something that surprises you, respond with curiosity, not alarm: "Tell me more about that."
Keep this book somewhere safe and special — it may become treasured for years.
If your child seems stuck or distressed, a child grief counselor can help. The Dougy Center (dougy.org) is an excellent place to start.
