💙 Gentle Ways to Help Children Heal After Loss
🖍️ A Healing Space for Little Hearts
Children grieve differently — but just as deeply. They may not always have the words to explain what they feel, but their hearts carry the weight of loss.
At Remarkable Memories, we created Dear God, I Miss Them — a grief coloring book for children coping with loss. It gently guides little ones through grief with love, creativity, scripture, and comfort.
This isn’t just a coloring book.
It’s a safe space to feel, to remember, and to heal.
💔 When Little Hearts Hurt
After a loss, children may feel sadness, fear, confusion, or even guilt — but may not know how to express it. That’s why creative healing matters.
Psalm 34:18 reminds us:
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
Even when their hearts are small, God’s comfort is always big enough.
What’s Inside Dear God, I Miss Them
Each children’s memorial coloring book is thoughtfully designed to help kids process grief:
-
✨ Soothing Coloring Pages — calm anxious thoughts and create moments of peace.
-
✨ Gentle Prompts & Activities — spark emotional expression and honor happy memories.
-
✨ Faith & Scripture — uplifting verses and affirmations to speak peace into little hearts.
Coloring becomes a non-verbal way for children to cope with loss — and discover quiet moments of healing and connection.
How to Use It With Your Child
Dear God, I Miss Them can be more than an activity — it can open doors to healing conversations. Try:
-
Coloring side by side while you listen.
-
Reading a verse together, like Isaiah 41:10 — “Fear not, for I am with you…”
-
Encouraging memory-sharing, letter-writing, or drawing pictures of their loved one.
-
Closing with a short prayer or reflection.
No pressure — just presence. Sometimes, that’s the greatest gift of healing.
For Older Kids & Teens
Teens often grieve quietly. That’s why we’re introducing an upcoming edition: Through the Colors: A Teen Memorial Coloring Book.
This book will give them a private space for hope, reflection, and healing. Coming soon.
