Kid Talk Flipbook For Review 05.10

Kid Talk Curriculum Introduction
Kid Talk is a “stand-alone” curriculum; however, it may take place
simultaneously with an adult series. It includes an orientation session
followed by 13 two-hour sessions for children ages 6 to 12. It contains 103
well-tested activities and games and a wealth of supplemental materials and
resources. Customize it to suit your setting, time available, learning styles, and
group size. It also works with one child.
The goal of all the Kid Talk activities in the church setting is for each child to
get to know God better and trust Him more. In the caring presence of the Kid
Talk facilitators, the children have a warm and safe environment to externalize
their feelings, process their grief and express their love for their person who
died (memorialize).
Our Story Memory Book is 38 pages of exercises crafted to enable children to
tell their story and better understand and express their grief. We call it
griefwork. It will also help kick-start discussions with family and be a healing
reference when children recycle grief in their teen years.
