Moving with children requires special attention to their emotional needs. Involve them in the process by letting them pack their own special box of favorite toys and books. Create excitement about the new home by showing pictures and talking about the new neighborhood. Maintain routines as much as possible during the move. Say proper goodbyes to friends, teachers, and neighbors. Once at the new home, set up children’s rooms first to create a sense of familiarity. Explore the new neighborhood together and find new favorite spots. Be patient – adjustment takes time, and children may need extra support during the transition.
