Ease Your Child's Heartbreak

All children need their loved ones around them to make them feel safe and happy.
But one of life's most common, yet difficult, experiences can be heartbreaking to watch a child learn.
How do you get a child to understand goodbyes the way adults do?

The
following farewell e-story downloads, (or paperback poem cards, or short-stories book) can help your child realise that 'Farewell' and 'I
Love You' go together, so that they can be more resilient and cope with
the pain of separation.
You can read the stories with your child,
or have your child embellish and decorate downloaded pages further (if
you choose to download), to help them process what goodbye means.
Simply download an e-story for $7 and print it out, or order a paperback version for $9.72. (What happens in the order process?)
Then, use some quality time to teach your child a little about one of life's challenges - saying goodbye.
The paperback versions of these goodbye stories are between 5 and 11 pages long, in a handy card size with plenty of space for signatures and messages.
