Moving is not easy. Should you decide to move away when you have kids, "Danny is Moving" by Dr. Annie Thiel is a great resource.


Here are some tips from the book...

Things To Remember When You Move

  1. You can still write letters to your old friends, and call them when you miss them.
  2. It’s okay to feel scared, or nervous about moving to a new place.
  3. Talk to someone you trust about your feelings.
  4. Ask lots of questions about the place where you are moving.
  5. Even though you will miss your old friends, you can make lots of new friends.
  6. Try to talk to the new kids in your class. They are nervous about meeting you too.
  7. Don’t worry if you don’t make new friends right away – sometimes it takes a while to get used to new people and become friends with them.
  8. Ask your parents to help you make lots of playdates with your new friends.
  9. Tell your parents how to make your new room special, just for you.
  10. Moving to a new place and a new house can be very exciting!
