You can help a grieving child.

OUR STORY: A MEMORY BOOK for _____ is 38 pages of exercises designed to enable children to navigate their grief, tell their story, and better understand and express their grief. It is an interactive tool you can use to help a child learn, heal, and grow through their grieving process, while bonding with you, the helper. Each page can become a springboard for conversation, promoting griefwork as a family around topics like ‘Favorite Things,’ ‘An Acrostic for ____,’ ‘Toilet Bowl Love,’ and ‘Treasured Memories.’ Pages like ‘My Silent Hurting Heart,’ ‘My Grief Bundle,’ ‘The Behaviors of Grief,’ and ‘How My Family Has Changed’ increase understanding of the grief experience.

Detailed instructions for each page of the OUR STORY MEMORY BOOK are found in Kid Talk A FAITH-BASED CURRICULUM FOR GRIEVING CHILDREN. For this reason the two companion books are printed as one. For your convenience, if working with more than one child, you can purchase the memory book separately.

Kid friendly language you can quote introduces over 50 more games and activities in the Kid Talk curriculum. These interactive exercises tip the balance of griefwork towards ‘fun.’ (Examples are popping corn without a lid when talking about anger, making ‘pop-up puppets’ who talk for you, and ‘Kid Talk Jenga.’

With a completed OUR STORY MEMORY BOOK, a child no longer needs to worry about forgetting the person who died. As a keepsake, it may also be an invaluable support when grief inevitably recycles in later years, especially in adolescence. It will enable him or her to reconnect with once-fresh feelings, memories, and perspective of their loss.
