Once a Wizard

Navigating grief and loss with young children requires gentle, creative approaches that meet them at their developmental level. To help counsellors, educators, and families guide these delicate conversations, we’ve created a suite of free companion materials for Once a Wizard. Download creative colouring pages and printable finger puppets for interactive storytelling, or access our comprehensive guidebook for gentle discussion prompts and therapeutic activities. You can also watch a special author video reading to share directly with children. Explore the tools below, and learn more about using story to navigate grief in the full book, Once a Wizard: A Story About Finding a Way Through Loss.
