Description
Children aged 3 – 6 are “concrete thinkers” – they may not fully understand that death is permanent, and often express grief through play, drawing, or changes in behaviour rather than words.
This Early Childhood Grief Pack helps little ones make sense of loss in safe, creative ways.
Each worksheet provides a gentle prompt to explore feelings, remember special people, and find comfort in routines and connection.
What’s inside:
🏠 My Feelings House – Draw different emotions in each “room” (happy, sad, safe, loved)
💛 When I’m Feeling Sad – Identify people and things that bring comfort
🧸 Things That Make Me Feel Safe – Explore calming people, places, and routines
🎨 Free Drawing + Comfort Monster – Encourage imagination, memory, and self-expression
How it helps:
- Builds emotional awareness and language for feelings
- Encourages play and creativity as safe outlets for grief
- Supports early resilience and security through routine and reassurance
- Offers parents, carers, and teachers a gentle way to connect during difficult times
Quick tip: You don’t need perfect words — just sit alongside as they draw or colour, and name feelings gently. Every small moment of connection helps them feel safe and loved.
