Research Stimulation

The topic I chose to research is the understanding of death and the fear of death in young children. I feel that it is important for children to understand the meaning of living and non-living and not be afraid of the word. Just because we do not talk about it doesn’t mean children do not want to know. I feel it is best to give them a clear but child friendly and honest understanding instead of allowing them to partake in fictional thoughts. Fellow classmates, if there is any information that you come across regarding understanding death and overcoming the fear of death in young children please pass it along, I will greatly appreciate it. Hopefully, I won’t change my mind about my topic, there is so much I want to know more about regarding early childhood.
