Remember, Together: Grief Conversation & Activity Cards for Kids
Remember, Together: Grief Conversation & Activity Cards for Kids were created to guide parents, caregivers, and trusted adults in opening meaningful conversations with children who have experienced the death of someone close. Each card offers gentle prompts and activities that help validate and normalize a child’s grief, while creating space to build healthy coping skills, identify the people and places that help them feel supported, and explore meaningful ways to stay connected to the person they are remembering. The goal of this set is to empower adults to show up with curiosity and compassion—so that no child has to grieve alone.
The Remember, Together Cards will be most appropriate for youth, ages 5-12. Theys can be used in a variety of ways and settings – facilitated by a parent/caregiver, another trusted adult, or grief professional. They can be used individually or in a small group setting. Additional resources and related activities can be found on our Eluna Resource Center by searching for Remember, Together.
