My Grief Comfort Book

Help children deal with the loss of someone special through activities and creative art therapy projects. Includes stickers, coloring sheets, keepsakes, and comfort cards.

Whether a child has lost a grandparent, a pet, or an important person in their life, My Grief Comfort Book offers them space to process their emotions through hands-on art, play, and storytelling.

The activities in this book are designed by author Brie Overton, the clinical director at the Experience Camps for grieving children. My Grief Comfort Book invites kids to take a creative break from the heaviness of their loss. As they draw, paint, share a story, or play a game, they build coping skills, manage their emotions, develop resilience, and make peace with their grief.

• Creative, thoughtful, and genuine! Brie Overton does a beautiful job in setting the tone and making grieving kids feel seen and understood with dozens of wonderful activities included that will allow kids to process their feelings while simultaneously experiencing joy and fun.
