ABOUT BACKPACK OF LOVE
The Backpack of Love program was created by the Calvary social workers and is provided free of charge to the children of their patients, through donations to the Mary Potter Foundation. They are used as a tool to support young children who have lost a parent, grandparent, or guardian. Contents include a selection of activities and books designed to distract, entertain and to help them remember their loved one. There is also information to help adults facilitate conversations with the child about their feelings during this difficult time.
In addition to the activities, the children are encouraged to use the backpack to store personal items that remind them of the person they love – such as one of grandma’s hankies sprayed with her perfume, their favourite photo or t-shirt of their loved one, or a DVD they loved to watch together. When the child is feeling sad and missing their loved one, they can open the backpack to touch/feel/smell the special items they have collected.
This can be so comforting and helps them reconnect to the person they miss so dearly!
