Hablar del duelo y la pérdida es todo un reto; a veces parece imposible encontrar las palabras adecuadas o un buen punto de partida. "Sprite ayuda a decir adiós" enseña a los niños los distintos tipos de despedidas. Ya sea guardar los juguetes al final del día o mudarse de casa, los niños aprenden que los recuerdos son una forma positiva de conectar con el amor que sienten en su corazón.
Las preguntas de reflexión y conexión al final de la historia de Sprite ofrecen a los cuidadores un recurso de apoyo para guiar la conversación sobre el duelo y la pérdida, y profundizar en la comprensión de esta importante habilidad emocional por parte del niño.
