Moving Resources For Kids

I have recently purchased a few great resources for our kids to help them cope with our upcoming move.  I am a bargain shopper and found all three of these books at greatly reduced prices!

The girls each received a copy of "My New Home and Me".  It is a memory scrapbook, a great way for younger kids to deal with their emotions in a fun way.  They can include pictures, fill in the blanks, and share how they are feeling about different aspects of the move.

The "Usborne Moving House Sticker Book" is also fun.  There are picture and word stickers to put on each page, along with a search for the hidden duck.  The girls are enjoying filling up a page each day.

"We're Moving" has been read many many times already.  The story follows a girl who is sad to be moving.  She does not want to leave her friends and she doesn't want to leave the flowers that she helped plant with her Dad.  The reader follows her family as they arrive in their new home and sleep in empty rooms for the first night.  We have had many discussions about this book, from how our cats will handle the move, to getting to pick out paint colors for our new house, just like the characters in the story.

So the kids are taken of in the book department.  Now I just need to find some resources for adults....the stress some days is TOO MUCH for us to handle!
