The Comfort for Children in Hard Times series by Darby Strickland addresses difficult experiences that children commonly face and offer gospel hope and help. Children ages four to seven will be drawn to the bright and beautiful illustrations and the calm, gentle stories of the animal featured in each book. A special section at the end of each book helps parents and caregivers guide their children through their situation and uses biblical truths to reassure children that God’s love and comfort. For each book there is a companion plush toy available that gives kids something soft and comforting to snuggle when they are feeling anxious or sad. There is also a companion minibook available for each book that gives parents and caregivers more detailed help.
What's Included?
Something Scary Happened
Miles is a happy little lamb until something bad happens. All of a sudden, Miles feels like he is alone in a deep dark valley, but it is there in the valley that he meets his good Shepherd who promises to always be with him, no matter what. Something Scary Happened is part of the Helping Children Through Traumatic Experiences series, helping parents address difficult experiences that children face and offering gospel hope and help.
When Children Experience Trauma
When our children experience a traumatic event, we can feel powerless to help. We fear getting it wrong or reminding them of the hurt. Or we miss important cues that signal a child is in distress, leading us to address problematic behaviors with discipline or frustration.
Counselor Darby Strickland wants parents to know that they are just the right person to help their child. After a distressing event, a parent's shepherding can play a vital role in their child's healing, helping them to feel loved by you and the Lord. You can help children navigate their fears, guide them through their distress, and assist their recovery. Your child does not need you to be an expert in trauma; your child needs you to engage with them as they suffer, pointing the way toward hope and healing.
Miles Plush Toy
This plush Miles toy lamb gives kids something soft and comforting to cuddle when they're scared and serves as a tangible reminder that the Shepherd who comforted Miles is also with them. You can read Miles' story in Something Scary Happened by Darby A. Strickland.
