Kids Good Grief Camp in Springfield

A day for children ages 6 to 12 who have experienced the death of a loved one

Staab Funeral Homes will host Kids Good Grief Camp on April 6 from 12 to 4 p.m.

Grieving children often feel isolated because they rarely know anyone their age who has experienced the death of a friend or family member. Support can be beneficial in the weeks, months or even years after the death of a loved one.

Kids Good Grief camp is an afternoon of both support and fun, providing children an opportunity to:

• Share their experiences with other children and lessen their sense of isolation
• Help each other in their healing journeys
• Learn valuable tools to help them grieve in a healthy way
• Make new friends
• Participate in a wide range of activities

The experience is for children ages 6 to 12 who have experienced the loss of a loved one.

A brief parent presentation will take place at the end of camp. Parents should arrive by 3:10 p.m. to participate.

There is a $10 registration fee. Scholarships are available.

Visit Staab’s website for the registration details and more information about Kids Good Grief.

Please register by April 1. Spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Late registration may be possible if space is available.
