How can I include the children when getting ready to move?

Stability Starts With You

Children love the stability and predictability of routines. When getting ready to move, balance their needs to maintain normal routines with a need for "closure". Give them time and support for their own emotional grieving for the loss of what was thought to be permanent like friends, church and home. Reassure them and reflect together on the value of family, and the different ways to keep in touch when separated by distance.
