Part 2 of 4 - Moving Series

Moving with kids can be an adventure. It’s already a stressful time but how can you help your younger kids cope with the move?

First, make sure you communicate with your kids. Kids know more than you think. Don’t keep them in the dark. Tell them at the appropriate time, but try to tell them enough in advance so they can soak in the information.

If you are moving close, you may want to take them to the new neighborhood and show them the new school they will be attending. Drive them by the playground so they can get a feel for their new community.

Include them in the home search! Give them books and other fun stuff to get them in the groove of this major change. (Free coloring book below)
