Parenting Through Grief: Helping Your Young Child Navigate Loss

When a young child experiences loss, their world can feel confusing and overwhelming. As a parent, you may wonder how to explain death, comfort their big emotions, and guide them through grief in a way they can understand. Life Grows Around Us is your compassionate roadmap to supporting your child through one of life's hardest moments.

This practical guide helps parents recognize how grief appears in young children—whether through tears, questions, or changes in behavior—and provides gentle, age-appropriate ways to talk about loss. With expert insights, healing activities, and emotional reassurance, you'll learn how to create a safe space for your child to grieve while maintaining stability and hope.

Whether they've lost a grandparent, sibling, friend, or pet, this book empowers you to be their steady anchor. Because grief may change them, but with love and understanding, it won't define them.

Includes actionable ways to help your child cope with loss:

  • Memory Box Activity
  • Feelings Map
