Children meet in age appropiate groups and take part in activities such as: Making comfort pillows Creating Memory boxes Producing artwork Writing memories Taping memories Sharing their experience with others Reading stories Moving with music Adults meet to learn more about their own grief and their children's grief as they support one another. What really happens for children as the result of the supportive activities at Ted E. Bear are reported by parents and guardians: "There is less separation anxiety." "It helped my daughter open up and realize she is not alone." "He stopped crying out in his sleep." "My child would not even want to hear anyone talk about her daddy and now she talks about him." "They are now willing to talk about the death of their brother." "She no longer says it is hopeless."
