Goodbye NYC – Free Printable"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
Moving with kids in school age is not an easy task, it\u2019s in fact a big change in their life, and even though kids are very resilient and they adapt better than a lot of grown ups I know (ehem, hello ? that is for me, I know!) I think it\u2019s always a huge and fabulous help to guide them in that process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve done a lot of work helping our oldest to feel he\u2019s part of the team making this decision for our family, thinking what we\u2019d win, making list of \u201cpros\u201d (we try to focus more on the things he\u2019d gain, on the positive side of things and let him to come with the \u201ccons\u201d so it\u2019s more about this feelings and not putting ours on that list). I think it really helps to know what to expect and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Part of that process is watching videos, pictures, movies. Like when we were moving to NYC, we watched many movies that showed the city and we also watch \u201cNYC tour guides\u201d for kids (we found some on Prime videos). We also showed him other kids living in the city (so many mom bloggers post this kind of content).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This time that we are moving to a place where we already lived, we looked back on our iPhones for all the videos of our ordinary life there. That made easy to bring back lovely memories of friends, things and places we no longer had in NYC. And brought a warm idea of moving as an exciting new adventure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After telling the teachers and them sharing that our kid was moving we organized a little farewell treat for everyone with our family email address so they could give it to their parents and keep in touch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also created this illustration that, unfortunately, I couldn\u2019t have it printed in time for the last day. But it was an idea of a brownstone (a very NYC thing) illustration where each kid could leave a stamp with their fingerprint as a balloon. The phrase is from the beautiful movie UP from Pixar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I wanted to share this printable for free with you in case you want to use it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the FREE PRINTABLE<\/a> to download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
