I found this post from “Sesame Street”.

Helping Children Understand Natural Disasters

It includes guidance such as:

• Encourage your child to ask questions
• Offer comfort
• Respect concerns
• Think about ways you can help together

In addition to the suggestions they offer, I would guess your worldview plays an important role in how you work through this.

How do you help your children process disasters? How do you explain it in the context of God and His Creation?
