Have you ever wondered how to help your child understand or process a certain life event, like when a pet dies, or when a friend moves away? 


Or maybe you’ve wondered what’s the best way to prepare your child for something that’s going to happen like moving houses, welcoming a new sibling to the family or even going to the dentist?


Perhaps you’ve needed to find a way to talk about a certain behavior or challenge that keeps coming up, like learning how to share toys with a sibling or how to ask someone to play. 


My answer to these are- social stories! And that’s what we’re here to talk about today.
