a reminder:

children express their grief reactions much differently than adults do. scolding children for playing as they grieve is harmful. play is a coping skills, play is an appropriate way to express themselves, play is healing, playing in grief work is important.

as we know there is no 'right' or 'wrong' way to grieve; esp depending on how the caregivers in a child's life respond to loss/change

you may witness a child looking for the person/people, places (if there's a move, loss, divorce, seperation) and with that will come frustration

another rlly important thing to remember is schedules and routines; we are all creatures of habit, esp children. they may rely on caregivers at many different levels when navigating things such as sleep, eat, drink, bathroom, etc. -basics, ya know.
