Watch our short animated film which helps children to cope with difficult feelings like anger, worry and guilt so that emotions don’t build up and erupt - like a volcano. 🌋

You can't see grief from the outside and everyone experience it differently. Children find it sometimes hard to talk about grief because they don't understand the feeling they feel inside when grieving. #rainbowsgb #children #youngpeople #feelings #support #schools #Bereavement
