Send us a text

In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will share four simple and practical tips on how to connect with your child or teen after a death.

1. Make Space for Their Feelings Without Fixing
2. Use Art or Writing to Process the Loss
3. Maintain a Sense of Routine and Stability
4. Honor the Person Who Passed Together

Supporting a child or teen after a death is like becoming a lighthouse in their stormy sea of grief. While the waves of sadness may continue to crash around them, your steady light—through presence, consistency, and compassion—guides them safely to shore. And each time they see your light shining, they learn that even in the darkest times, they are not alone.
