	#4537. 25 Things to Do When Grandpa passes away, Mom and dad get divorced, or the dog dies; activities to help children suffering loss or change. Kids need ways to acknowledge death and loss--and they need to express their sense of grief physically. Some children need activities we consider traditional: they conduct ceremonies or write letters to the people they've lost. Others, full of the anger that is a normal stage of grief, need to pound and punch, run and jump. Yet others express their grief through art. This book combines a description of the grieving process with directions for activities that help bereaved children. 127pages Pub: 2003
