[quote=Anonymous]When a great-grand parent died a few years ago - my kids were on the young side. Early elem and preschool. For kids at that age, they're thinking is very concrete. So I talked about how she is dead and we can no longer spend time with her. I talked about how she will always be in our memories and we can talk about the time we spent together and how we still love her even if she's gone; she lives on in our memories. Like everything else, follow the kids' lead. I don't remember getting questions about afterlife, where your soul goes or anything like that. But I typically answer those type of questions with isn't that nice to imagine these things.[/quote]
