Going Away and Coming Back: Strategy Song and Activity | Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood
Miss Elaina is sad after her mom drops her off at school, but Daniel Tiger cheers her up by singing "grownups come back" in this Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood video excerpt. In the related activity, "Going Away and Coming Back," Children will discuss feelings about separation and brainstorm ways to deal with these difficult emotions. This activity can help children use play to work on their feelings about when their parents go away and develop a sense of trust that grownups come back. The activity also includes book suggestions about grownups leaving and coming back.
