Help lit­tle ones move from sad­ness to brighter days with this hope­ful and encour­ag­ing look at a uni­ver­sal emotion.

It’s nor­mal to feel sad, but for kids, sad­ness can often feel over­whelm­ing and con­fus­ing. Let the Light In meets chil­dren in their moment of sad­ness and offers empa­thet­ic ideas on how to nav­i­gate it. Con­crete and sim­ple ideas include cre­ative expres­sion, going for a walk, pay­ing atten­tion to the world around them, and vis­it­ing a friend. Lit­tle ones will be left with the uplift­ing mes­sage that, whether it hap­pens in big ways or small, all at once or over time, sad­ness will even­tu­al­ly fade, and bet­ter days will come.
