Children experience and express grief in ways that are often different from adults. This training explores how children understand and respond to loss throughout development and how grief may show up through emotions, behaviors, relationships, and play. Participants will learn practical, developmentally appropriate play-based approaches to help children express feelings, process loss, and maintain meaningful connections.
1. Describe developmental differences in how children understand, experience, and express grief and loss across childhood.
2. Identify common emotional, behavioral, relational, and play-based responses to grief in children, including responses that may be overlooked or misunderstood.
3. Demonstrate developmentally appropriate, play-based interventions that support children in expressing grief, processing loss, and maintaining meaningful connections.
