I will be out of town for a while for a business trip or vacation. How can I explain this to my baby/child?
- “Mom/Dad will not be with you as they are on a business trip, you will be with your grandparents, I hope you will have a pleasant time together. They will put you to bed for a few days and then we will come again.” You can provide an environment for him to express the process with a game.
- You can prepare a calendar together and ask them to paint a box every day, and you can ask our elders to give feedback as 3-2-1 days until the arrival of the parents. (Many of the children said that their outgoing parents left them and returned. They are very worried because they think that he will not return, this way a calendar will make him feel better by embodying the situation). -The child can have a very intense emotion. It is very valuable to try to find solutions with compassion by talking about it together)
- Who can help with a difficult feeling or need he/she is experiencing
- You can leave notes, pictures and small gifts in some parts of the house so that they can find them in your daily conversations and make them feel that you are with them.
- If possible, you can make her feel safer by making her sleep in her own home and in her bed without changing her routine too much.
