Little Box of BIG Thoughts

The Little Box of BIG Thoughts is designed to help older children or adults have a conversation with someone close by who is important to them, or perhaps to process thoughts and feelings about someone who has died. It can be used to show a young person that just because someone is no longer with them, their connection to that person remains.

This tool will help by starting every sentence for them. It is simply a collection of sentence starters, which a person can finish on paper or say out loud to you, helping them to voice their feelings and memories as well as processing complex, commonly bottled-up emotions, such as anger, shame, survivor guilt and regret.

The video below helps to explain how the worksheet can help.
